led, shaken up over 3f out, ridden and headed 2f out, rallied and kept on well inside final furlong, not reach leaders
held up in rear, never a factor
chased leader, shaken up to challenge over 3f out, driven and led narrowly 2f out, faced strong challenge inside final furlong, just prevailed
mid-division, going best when shaken up over 2f out, soon every chance, ridden and made sustained challenge inside final furlong, ran on, just held
Withdrawn
Lasting Legacy made a winning reappearance at Chelmsford but is probably out of her depth in this grade. Angel Power has won in Group 2 and Group 3 company but was lightly raced last year. Technique didn’t win last year but ran well on several occasions and makes more appeal than Abstinence. NOON STAR (NAP) was a short-priced favourite for last year’s Musidora but, unsurprisingly, proved no match for Snowfall. She was also well backed again later in the Ribblesdale but only managed sixth but is a previous winner here and this looks a good starting point for the new campaign.
