The usual huge field for this listed event, many of the runners highly unlikely to be up to the grade, the attraction of having a runner at Royal Ascot clearly enough in itself for many; that isn't to say the principals haven't run to a useful level, and may well go on to be competitive in group company, though with maidens, albeit promising ones, in third and fourth and with neither of the first 2 in the market giving their running, it's hard to make this more than an average renewal of the race; the field raced essentially as one group across the track, though those on the stands side were semi-detached and may have been disadvantaged, though equally they might just have been not good enough to go the pace of the main group.
