Race time recorded.

In-running (Cerro Blanco (GB))

“Fast into stride and in front early - lost momentum and slipped behind briefly - made steady progress to reach the front pair with 2f remaining - swept ahead and opened a big advantage - asked for effort in the closing furlong - strolled home unchallenged”
