close up, pushed along halfway, edged right and no impression over 1f out until stayed on towards finish
close up, effort 2f out, led over 1f out, ridden and ran on
led, ridden and headed over 1f out, weakened final furlong
tracked leaders, ridden 2f out, kept on inside final furlong
disputed lead, ridden 2f out, chased winner over 1f out, one pace final furlong
very slowly away in rear, ridden halfway, weakened over 1f out
in rear, ridden 2f out, never a factor
Comedy Night made a decent start when second at Brighton on his debut but it would be no surprise if one the newcomers proved good enough. Miniaturist is bred to best over middle-distances but Ryan Moore's presence on Auxiliary takes the eye and Grizzly Bear is another to note. Gerrard's Quest is related to a couple of winning sprinters but WELD AL KHAWANEEJ makes most appeal. Out of a prolific mare, Kevin Ryan's colt boasts a speed-packed pedigree that includes the smart sprinter Falasteen among six winning relatives so he gets the nod.
