For the first time in the history of Horner turf, the field give the three year olds with a boxing-start on the 2,400-metre track. An outsider "Black Winesaps" under Peter Remmert assumes the leadership work. The number of "Elviro" moves on the backstretch, a horse with great stamina, the second place of Piggotts of high bet "Liternt" lies in the midfield.
At the intake in the finish straight, celebrity guests and bona fide horse weather expect the decisive attack of their Jockey stars. However, Piggott had bad luck. "Literary" injured himself. It runs behind the leading horses without opportunities.
In the closing stages of the race, only "Bacchus" the Waldfrieder Stallion can be dangerous. But "Elviro" is stronger in the finish.
