It was a slow pace set by Majounes Song, and when the field turned for home most of the field was left flat footed by the sudden increase in speed. But not Silkwood. She quickly reached top gear, ran down the tiring leader and ran away for a 5 length win.

All My Loving and Dalvina took an age to accelerate, did eventually run on but from about 2 furlongs out they were running for second place. Baroness Richter produced an eye-catching finish from nowhere for fourth.

Thanks for the visual! I really like All My Loving but figured she was beatable... just didn't know who would do it.
