That was quite taking by Jonbon, I have to say.

I thought EDG was never really going with his usual verve but Edwardstone looked primed and was ridden to take advantage of any shortcomings of the favourite but there were none. I'd say he was looked after to a fair degree from the turn for home, the jockey clearly accepting he wasn't going to peg back Jonbon and will improve next time but the winner is also entitled to improve again.

Nube Negra (OR 160) and Edwardstone (OR 167) appear to have run close to that differential so you could argue the winner has run to around 177 with the promise of more to come.

One to take very seriously.
