  A weak bumper in which four of the five runners were making their racecourse debuts. Paul Nicholls feared that the well-bred Blue Romance would need the race, as she'd never had a proper gallop at home owing to the dry weather, but the mare got away with it and held on well in a driving finish, having taken it up two out. She is essentially a galloper and Nicholls reckons she will find "enormous improvement over a period of time".
