She did it very well and I'm very pleased with that. She wasn't right in Galway but is back right again now and I thought that was one of her best runs. Reginald Roberts, trainer

The Stewards requested a report from Reginald Roberts, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of Misty Lane, winner, as compared with its most recent run at Galway on the 29th July, where she finished last of 16 beaten 18 lengths. The trainer reported that the filly ran very disappointedly at Galway, where she may not have been suited by the undulating track. She had started to train up light around the time of the Galway race, and so he decided to give her a break and freshen her up, and this may have brought about any apparent improvement in form today. Having considered the report, the Stewards noted the explanations offered.
