A Group 1 worthy of its sub-title as one of the 'British Legs of The Global Sprint Challenge', in terms of both representation and high standard, the latter admittedly due to yet another top Australian sprinter, Scenic Blast's performance just about the best in the race's history since Dayjur in 1990, but Fleeting Spirit also did the home contingent proud; both came from off the very strong pace, on opposite sides of the pack, the runners soon converging middle-to stand side, few really getting competitive, though most were chancing their arm in this company anyway, reckoning without one of Scenic Blast's calibre.
