Comments

1ZAIDAN  O Doleuze

Posted 3-wide in mid-division, travelled smoothly to straight, accelerated to a clear lead inside 250M, kept on well final stages to hold off the fast finishing 2nd.

2SWEET ORANGE  W C Marwing  (TT)

Switched off to last, had over 6Ls to make up turning home but had no clear run before pulling wide to challenge near 350M, finished strongly (clocked fastest final 400M of the day) and was just denied.

3DOMINANT  N Callan  (H/XB1)

Slow to begin, settled near last 7Ls off the pace, held up early straight, ran on well between horses inside 300M but no impression on first two.

4FAY FAY  D Whyte

Behind midfield 5Ls back, proved difficult to settle when the pace slackened in middle stages, checked twice passing 800M, took a while to get going in straight, stayed on final 200M.

5LIBERATOR  M Du Plessis  (B-/H-/TT)

Ahead of mid-division but travelled wide without cover for most of the way, responded well to pressure in straight, went 2nd 200M out, weakened inside 100M and faded to 5th.

6SMART GIANT  J Lloyd  (XB/TT)

Reserved in a rearward position 6Ls back, raced keenly when the pace slackened over the turn, kept on final 400M but could not get to the leaders. (Blood in trachea.)

7DAN EXCEL  D Oliver  (SR)

Slotted into a 3-wide position behind midfield, pushed wider nearing 700M and lost cover, kept on passing 400M but not going the pace to seriously challenge, faded final stages.

8BEAUTY TOUCH  M Chadwick  (TT)

Always in touch 2-3Ls off the lead, had his chance but not able to quicken with the main rivals inside 400M, no impression.

9CAPTAIN SWEET  T Clark

Quickly into stride, up with the pace until 1100M, in 3rd place making the home turn, led briefly near 300M, weakened rapidly over final 200M.

10HORACE'S EMPIRE  Z Purton

Dropped back to the rear, 7Ls off the pace in middle stages, turned wide halfway home turn, not quickened passing 400M, never able to challenge.

11BANKSTERS BONUS  Y T Cheng  (B/SR1)

Settled in midfield along the fence, one-paced final 400M, never a threat.

12PACKING TYCOON  G Mosse  (TT)

Awkwardly away, up with early pace then strode forward to take lead passing 1000M, slowed things down over the turn, headed inside 300M, weakened.

13CHEF  K C Leung  (H/SR)

Never far off the steady pace, not quickened under pressure, left behind by the field mid-straight.

14CHEERS JOY  T Angland  (XB/P1)

Driven forward, shared lead until 1000M, in 2nd place turning in, found nothing and dropped out rapidly. (Unacceptable performance.)
