found a big chunk of improvement to register a fourth win of the season, impressive in running right away with it in the straight, a well-run race over a slightly shorter trip bringing out the best in him; dropped out, headway on bridle 3 out, led 2 out, soon clear; his mark will take a big hit, but this form will see him competitive in graded novices.

well-in under a penalty, couldn't justify favouritism but remains in good form, as much as anything unlucky to bump into one, though perhaps less testing conditions didn't suit as well; pressed leader, travelled well, led after 3 out, headed next, one paced, no match for winner, did best of those ridden close up.

Not the most competitive handicap for the grade with over half returning from at least 2 months off, though the runner-up's well-being wasn't in any question and it took a borderline smart effort from the winner to leave him trailing from 2 out; a good gallop meant patient tactics were no bad thing, while most of the field avoided the inside. KALONDRA (IRE) found a big chunk of improvement to register a fourth win of the season, impressive in running right away with it in the straight, a well-run race over a slightly shorter trip bringing out the best in him; dropped out, headway on bridle 3 out, led 2 out, soon clear; his mark will take a big hit, but this form will see him competitive in graded novices.
