Placing | Horse No |
Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 1 | ABLE FRIEND (P303) | J Moreira | CP | Held up towards the rear, patiently ridden in a slowly run race, picked up pace 350M, cantered past rivals under gentle handling, led 100M and cruised to an emphatic victory. |
2 | 7 | BEAUTY FLAME (S117) | G Mosse | TT | Soon led, enjoyed a soft lead and set a slow pace first half of the race, quickened up tempo 600M out, still going well into final 200M but failed to hold off the mighty ABLE FRIEND nearing 100M. hung on for 2nd. |
3 | 6 | REWARDING HERO (N376) | N Rawiller | H/XB | Settled in midfield about 3Ls off the pace, shifted out 300M for clear run, stayed on well enough for 3rd but had no chance with the impressive winner. |
4 | 3 | BLAZING SPEED (P192) | N Callan | TT | Always in touch, 4th making the turn for home, driven along 500M out, briefly threatened but turned one pace over final 200M. |
5 | 4 | AMBITIOUS DRAGON (CK399) | M Guyon | B | Reserved near the rear, saved ground along the rails, stayed on moderately over final 400M, lay in under pressure and awkwardly placed final stages. |
6 | 2 | GOLD-FUN (P045) | D Whyte | V | Tracked the pace along the fence, kept up the chase on leader until weakening final 100M. (sustained cut to right hind leg and found to be lame next day.) |
7 | 9 | REAL SPECIALIST (M143) | K Teetan | P | Positioned one out one back, driven along 500M but lacked the needed response, grudgingly gave way passing 200M. |
8 | 5 | GLORIOUS DAYS (M353) | M Demuro | B | Settled in mid-division, steadied 300M, failed to quicken thereafter. |
9 | 8 | ALL YOU WISH (P031) | B Prebble | TT | Slow to begin, 7Ls back in the rear early stages, shaken up 500M but gave limited response only, never reached contention. |
