ch g Handsome Ridge - Pearl Dawn (IRE) (Jareer)
Reared start, held up, headway on outside into straight, kept on final furlong but not reach leaders (jockey said, regarding the running and riding, his orders were to jump out and be prominent to keep out of the kickback, but gelding reared leaving stalls and because it has a quirky temperament it can't be bustled so he had to bide his time, keep wide and could only make his move in the straight when heading for home) (op 11-8 tchd 13-8)
