Slow — could be soft ground, easy lead, or tactical race.

In-running (The Ubermensch (GER))

Tracking the pace - closing the gap with more than 2f to run - driven along and hit the front approaching the final furlong - dug in when pressed late on - prevailed by the narrowest of margins

Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Pleasant Man

Pleasant Man returns in strong form, having landed a handicap at Doncaster a fortnight ago, and handles today's 12f trip well — a sound case for selection at the head of the ratings. Hibernate and The Ubermensch are the main dangers, both with the form to perform at this level, but Pleasant Man is our selection.
