A huge field, but a market and a race dominated by 2 fillies, Happy Like A Fool looking in the mould of Acapulco and Lady Aurelia, outstanding winners of the last 2 runnings of this for the same stable, backed accordingly, but the strong second favourite Heartache comprehensively defeated her, and while her performance wasn't on a par with those, she ran to a historically high level for a Queen Mary winner, even though a few of the longshots appear to have excelled themselves; the race was dominated by those drawn towards the stands side, though with the runner-up setting the pace and the winner 2 stalls away, the likelihood is that they would have dominated wherever they were on the track.
