A facile enough success for SHINDIG, who was left clear at the last but would have won anyway. He travelled keenly at the head of proceedings and opened up a few lengths' lead before the second last. It was a lead he had maintained when his nearest pursuer came down at the final flight. His level of form certainly entitled him to win a race of this nature.

Day Day was held up a long way off the pace and gradually got closer, but could never really get into contention.

Short-priced favouriteThe Ginger Man travelled like a dream for most of the journey, getting to the front at the third last, but he came under pressure soon after that and the cupboard was well and truly bare.

Tommy Turkle ran a race not totally devoid of promise on his second race under rules. He's likely to be seen at his best once stepping up intrip, and just kept on at one pace from mid-division.

Pepperhill led early and kept up the gallop for a long way, but was just beginning to tire when she fell three out.

Moygashel was staying on, although not making any impression on the winner, when falling at the last.
