The usual mix of hurdlers and useful Flat handicappers, the winner being one who falls into both categories, evidently improved for a change of stable and most impressive after briefly finding himself in a spot of bother over 2f out, making the rest look decidedly pedestrian once in the clear; the pace was steady, most still travelling within themselves 4f out, and the test wasn't as exacting as it might have been despite the extreme distance.
