Godolphin-raced two-year-old colt Bandipur has now raced four times for two wins and he impressed in taking out his first win at stakes level here. He settled in sixth place, between runners, before improving nicely nearing the home turn. He took the lead shortly afterwards and then went on to score well in the Soft 7 conditions, seemingly with something in hand. Three-year-old Arkham Knight was eighth, between runners, before switching across heels and into clear running on straightening. He challenged at the 100m and then battled on well under 59kg for second finding his younger rival with 5kg less too smart. Three-year- old filly Mystified had a nice trip in fifth place, between runners, before challenging on turning for home. She then battled on well for a good third. Showpero was handy on the rails and held on for (2.9 lengths) fourth while the favourite, Team Hawkes-trained two-year-old colt Ducimus was quickly away from his outside barrier (13) before racing outside the leader (Magnatti). He tired in the latter stages for (3.2 lengths) fifth in a sound first up effort after working in the early stages.
