Held up in rear, switched outside 2f out, headway over 1f out, soon ridden to challenge, every chance when edged left inside final furlong, kept on, no extra final 50 yards op 7/1
Wild Flower (6/4), Justice Rock (10/3), Cooperess (9/2), Triple Dream (7/1), Picansort (8/1), Deben (10/1), Verdi (11/1)
Very moderate fayre, with DEBEN given the nod. The John Weymes-trained gelding has proved he can be very competitive from higher marks and the handicapper has now given him some rope. Wild Flower ran well here last time, but a win remained beyond her grasp and from 2lb higher she could again go well in defeat. Picansort and Verdi are perhaps the others who can fight out the minors.
