Chiconomic denied by Clenaghcastle

>>Blastofmagic touched 1.34 in running on Betfair when going to the front in the opener at Brighton, but he proved a sitting duck and was caught by Chiconomic.

Chiconomic was soon backed to 1.04, but supporters had not expected the late challenge of 7-2 chance Lord Clenaghcastle, who got up in the final stride despite touching no shorter than 1.2. He traded at a high of 26.

>>The early money that forced Saxagogo to 1-2 in the first at Chelmsford dried up at the off and, after drifting to 4-5, the market leader could never get competitive in a well-held third.
