Held up 4th, improved to 3rd at 8th, not fluent 4 out, soon 4th, travelled well into 3rd after 3 out, headway to be on terms before 2 out, soon led, ridden and strongly pressed run-in, asserted close home op 9/2
Towards rear, 5th at 7th, closer in 5th 4 out, improved to 4th approaching straight, 3rd before 2 out, strongly challenged leader run-in, not match winner closing stages op 4/5
Slowmotion (9/10), Not For Burning (9/2), Daisy's Gift (11/2), Goulane Davina (7/1), Twiss's Hill (11/1), Balofilo (33/1), Roisin A Chroi (66/1)
Daisy's Gift has proven stamina on here side as well as form at this level and will be tough enough to topple, but SLOWMOTION is arguably the classiest mare on show here and in receipt of weight we will take a chance that she can see out this marked step up in trip. Goulane Davina and Not For Burning are two others likely to be in the shake-up.
