Held up towards rear, 8th halfway, headway after 2 out to chase leaders between last 2, went 2nd going best before last, ridden to lead run-in and kept on well, readily (the Stewards requested a report from the trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of Ming Dynasty as compared with its most recent run at Haydock on April 20th, when beaten by 84 lengths. Feidhlim Cuinngham, authorised representative for the trainer, reported that his charge had disappointed on his previous run in what he felt was a high class race. He added that following the run, Ming Dynasty got a short break and he felt this, along with what was in his opinion a lesser race, may have helped to bring about the apparent improvement in form) (op 14/1)
