It didn't, as she failed to quicken off the fast pace set by Dunelight, unlike the winner PACO BOY and runner-up Stimulation. Richard Hannon's charge hadn't been seen since he was seventh in the French 2000 Guineas, but connections were bullish beforehand and their confidence proved to be justified. Richard Hughes settled his mount prominently, just on the heels of Dunelight, and he went to the front a furlong out always holding Stimulation who trod a similar path. A step up back to a mile should hold no fears for the winner or the runner-up. This was another good effort from Dunelight who remains in good form following a winning effort at Windsor last time. Il Warrd was tapped for toe at a crucial stage but finished his race quite well.

For whatever reason (most likely Brock's explanation) she didn't run her race today. On a form line through the horse that beat her, she has run almost three stone below her best.
I must admit, I really fancied her. Everything looked to suit and judging on her home work (saw her last piece of work and it was brilliant) I thought she would be okay. She never picked up, suggesting that she has gone over the top. If she was fresh, she would have surely walked all over her rivals today. Ahh well, it's not the first and won't be the last loser I've bet. On a slightly better note, the forecast on Finjaan and Bonnie Charlie got me out of a bit of trouble.

Glad you both did well.
Ummm, I'm not understanding the comments on Black Rock in (other) results. Anyone? Hope he's alright.

I didn't even know about Black Rock, just read it now. Doesn't sound good.
I know the owner's son, so I will try and ask him if he is okay.
