ANALYSIS:
A run-of-the-mill 0-80 sprint in which PAX did well to win as
he met trouble when coming from off the pace on the inside, but then
quickened to get clear before holding on well. It was a career-best
effort and he seems to go on any ground.
Ragamuffin ran a fair race to take second, running on,
Effervesce, who is 7lb higher than his last win, ran a solid
race having been forced to challenge wide. Bon Ami ran
creditably again but remains hard to win with. Cadeaux Cher
missed a beat at the start. Persian Pearl was keen and faded,
but the real disappointment of the race was the in-form Bint
Royal, who had every chance turning for home, but soon dropped
away.
