Emirates Park Scone Cup (LR)
In an exciting finish with less than two lengths separating the first nine horses, the Peter and Paul Snowden-trained Pajaro put up a really good effort in overcoming his outside barrier (16) to score. He went back to settle a clear last before improving between runners from the 800m to get through to midfield at the home turn. He took a narrow opening at the 100m and then finished gamely to grab a narrow but impressive win. It was also an excellent ride by Tim Clark. Amovatio did now show any early pace from his good barrier (2) and settled beyond midfield. He switched to the rails on straightening, got through to challenge at the 100m and then fought well for a good second, just failing to hold off the late closing winner, whom he conceded 5.5kg. Godolphin-raced Malice was quickly away and settled in an ideal spot, third on the rails. He was shuffled back a bit at the home turn but then got a split to challenge at the 100m and then battled well for a close-up third.
