COMFORT LIFE bounded in the air as the start was effected and lost ground.
EASY DAZZLING began only fairly and then lost further ground when crowded for room between DUBLIN STAR which shifted out and GOLD 'N’ BOLD which was taken in by GALLANT CROWN which in turn was taken in by NEXTMODEL. In this incident, GOLD 'N’ BOLD also lost ground after becoming badly unbalanced as a result of contact with GALLANT CROWN which became unbalanced.
Passing the 100 Metres, BESTA LUCK was awkwardly placed outside the heels of NEXTMODEL which shifted out under pressure.
Also passing the 100 Metres, COMFORT LIFE shifted out under pressure, requiring its rider to stop riding and straighten that horse.
GOLD 'N’ BOLD momentarily had difficulty obtaining clear running passing the 50 Metres at which stage the horse was shifted to the inside of PRECIOUS SWEETIE to continue improving.
Close to the finishing line, PRECIOUS SWEETIE was awkwardly placed outside the heels of COMFORT LIFE which continued to lay out and consequently was not ridden out all the way to the end of the race.
