"Like many Kris fillies she is a little hot and excitable so it was just a question of getting her switched off so she could come with a nice run. "Frankie Dettori is extremely good at doing that," Cumani said. "Wj decided not to run her again after her Newmarket win so she would not go any further up the handicap."

The five-year-old was always close to the pace but for a fleeting stride or two it seemed as though long-time leader Shaft of Light would stay in front of the chasing pack. However he finally cried enough close home allowing the winner, under a strong Richard Quinn drive, to go on. He was always going to stay there from that point and prevailed by \L.
