Settled in rear, improved to 5th 2f out, led inside final furlong, kept on well (jockey who rode last time out said, regarding the improved form shown, mare was slowly away last time, was unable to get a clear run throughout, and hung both ways making it difficult for him to ride her out, adding that in his opinion mare enjoys racing in smaller fields and things just did not work out for her last time; trainer added that mare seemed to appreciate today's faster ground) (op 10/1)
