Tracked clear leaders, closed 10f out, pushed along 3f out, ridden to chase winner over 2f out, no impression final furlong, just held on to 2nd op 9/4 tchd 7/4
A small field but a very tough contest this. The vote goes to FLINTROCK who had been off almost a year when a close fourth in return over 1m4f. He has a stamina-laden pedigree so could improve plenty for such a test with that run under his belt. Quloob is very capable off this mark and should be refreshed by a break and wind-op/gelding. Gumball is loving life back on the flat and is another with obvious claims.
