An up-to-scratch renewal of this listed event and it was dominated by those that raced prominently, the first pair in the firing line throughout with nothing landing a blow from behind. VALONIA well backed, produced a career best back down in trip to record her first success at this level; helped force pace, travelled fluently, went on over 2f out, tackled final 1f, battled well; well positioned as this went but should continue to give a good account regardless. SPINATRIX ran well just 24 hours after finishing second in the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon, likely to find a race at this level coming her way before too long; disputed lead, went with zest, every chance approaching final 1f, kept on, just failed; likely to continue in form. MU'AJIZA seemed to excel herself back in a listed contest on her first crack at sprinting, no doubt helped by her position in a race that favoured those ridden prominently; dwelt, soon recovered to chase leaders, effort approaching final 1f, no extra close home. LADIES ARE FOREVER ran better than last time back up in trip, though was still below her best; chased leaders, every chance early in straight, not quicken. HOODNA (IRE) strong in betting but ran below form and increasingly strikes as one not to take short odds about, just one win to her name outside of maiden company; mid-field, ridden over 2f out, kept on, never landed a blow. ATHENIAN (IRE) is best not judged on this run back down in trip, not well placed but fared best of those held up; held up, driven over 2f out, kept on, never on terms.
