ch f Shamardal (USA) - Right Direction (IRE) (Cape Cross)
Took keen hold, held up in rear, going okay over 2f out, weakened from over 1f out (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that his instructions were to drop filly in early, as she was stepping up in distance to the 1m for the first time with a view to get filly to settle and stay the trip knowing this was her first run over the increased distance; he stated that filly took a fairly keen hold through early stages of slowly run race, and his focus was to keep her held together and to move into race gradually; he added that filly found very little when asked for an effort and that he had suggested to trainer that filly would benefit by being dropped back in trip to 7f going forward) (op 100/1)
