A lot of the fancied horses came to the fore and this looks a strong renewal of the Albany Stakes in form terms, Kiyoshi impressively seeing off Sandiva, who set a good standard already; the form isn't 100% solid, though, as those drawn high did seem at a definite advantage after being towed into the race at a stronger gallop (set by Red Lady) than those more towards the far side, and it's not a coincidence that 5 of the first 6 positions were filled by horses out of 5 of the highest 6 stalls, Joyeuse the one that did particularly well against the bias.
