The one race at the meeting which puts a severe restriction on quality, being a 0-95, but little should be taken away from the principals in terms of handicapping, the most progressive horse in the line-up coming to the fore along with the best horse at the weights, who put up a near-smart effort; not unusually, it wasn't run at an end-to-end gallop, and in such a big field, those dropped right out found it hard to get into it, fifth, sixth and seventh among them also slightly hampered by the early casualty; the first two were trained by leading jumping trainers.
