SUMMARY
Rail out.
Another unsatisfactory 7f race at the course and not form to read literally. A slow pace and Dettori on Borug given a very easy time getting over from a wide draw and in the lead. Despite the slower pace the tight bend meant the field were spread out in an orderly manner over 8L+ at halfway. None were wider than Lane 1.
Raced turned into a 2F sprint and the halfway positions versus final placings tell most of the story. A couple of the longer shots not able to finish off the full 2F sprint and stalling back late on. This allowed the last pair to make a couple of places without doing anything notable and not getting involved in the race. The first 4 at halfway maintained their relative positions in the 2F sprint with little change. A race where the abilities were not spread out fully and the finishing order not reflect the relative class properly. Hard to believe Mr Perceptive, for example, will prove to be better than at least a couple of those behind him.
Borug not look better class and benefited from the way the race was run. Races with his head held up and extended and not look fully efficient on that.
Edmaaj typically a little green and not pressed to get involved early. Last to make his effort and travelling well in behind the line inside the last 2f. No instant response when he got a gap. Not a striking finish and just slowly overhauling the second rank but just Hands-and-Heels from the jockey.
Star Of Dance the start of a raft of debuts by the trainer and putting him ahead of his normal schedule. Stable builds into form through the season and August the start of the better period. But debut wins this early rare and his first 14 runners this season produced 2 places and 4th-6th range finishes the norm. This one opening as favourite should suggest he is a better class one but expecting him to be ready to win would require him to be very good. Widest draw and a slow break and never going to be given the prominent ride Dettori gave Borug anyway. Poor favourite unless you think he is Zacinto quality and knowing enough. Too green to pick up when asked then nudged along in the last furlong to plug on into midfield. Typical debut stuff for Stoute.
