Fewer 'dark' horses than usual for a Britannia but a really strong handicap all the same, the principals improving on the day and many in behind worth sticking with as, inevitably in such a big field, not all did themselves justice, though it was essentially a fair race, more so than the Hunt Cup 24 hrs earlier; the lower numbers (group of 11) came to the stand rail, and though the pace looked that bit stronger sooner far side, where the winner raced, things evened out in time for the finish and the next 4 home emerged from the smaller pack.
