Analyis of the race

This was a fairly weak handicap. CINERAMA, although not beaten far at Newbury on her most recent outing (back in early July) had earlier looked a non-stayer at this distance. However, with the pace not being that strong, she was able to see it out quite well and just did enough under minimal assistance from Katia Scallan.

She travelled strongly through the race and should have no trouble back at 7f, so may win again.

Azure Mist was slightly hampered by a tumbling Amy Scott, who was unshipped from Bramalea, but it did not seem to affect her performance and she did not go down without a fight. She has been a model of consistency of late and deserves to win a race now.

Nikolaievich was slowly into stride and had to be ridden so as not to lose touch. She never really threatened in the straight, just plodding on at the one pace for fourth.

Tampopo ran quite well on this handicap debut and may be open to a little further improvement.
