What you'd expect from a valuable Royal Ascot handicap in that it attracted a big, competitive field and, although it's not necessarily the strongest piece of form for a race of this type, it's certainly solid and involved plenty that should hold their own again in similar races; it's almost inevitable in a race of this nature that there'll be some in-running trouble and the likes of Libran, Famous Kid and Gold Trail didn't get the clearest run in the straight, but it wasn't overly messy; the pace was sound but nothing from right out the back got involved and a couple of those most patiently ridden can be marked up slightly.
