Bar the nose by which Mabs Cross failed to get up for third, this would have been the exact same first 3 as in 2018, reflecting both the lack of new faces on the scene this year - as well as an overseas challenge that proved second rate at best - but more so the very imposing level that Blue Point and Battaash set, the latter having smashed the 130 barrier 4 times - though again not able to do so at Ascot - and the former finally hitting that level himself here; things didn't drop perfectly for Battaash again in the race, the seemingly pre-determined plan to follow Houtzen apart from the rest of the field somewhat scuppered when that mare stumbled badly at the start meaning she was only able to take him to around halfway, Battaash having to do a lot of running to challenge from there, but the fact that Blue Point is remarkably not hostage to fortune for a top-level sprinter reflects all the better on him.
