See also » Thunderbear strikes for Davison and Ryan in Listed sprint 
He hit the line strong and was an impressive winner. They are his conditions — six furlongs, some juice in the ground and a strongly-run race. It was a lovely ride as well and James was patient. It’s lovely as he’s a homebred and owned by Will Armitage and my parents. He’s a real character of a horse and a favourite in the yard. He pops up every year and owes us nothing. He seems best kept fresh for the autumn. We went to Doncaster at the backend of last season and may go there again as Will is based over there.

C.T. Hayes, rider of Queen Of Mougins, trained by Adrian Murray, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount was hampered leaving the stalls. The Raceday Stewards reviewed the video footage and were satisfied no further action was warranted
J.M. Sheridan, rider of Varshini, trained by J.A.Stack, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that he had to check fifty yards from the line
The Raceday Stewards reviewed an incident at about the halfway point involving Big Gossey, ridden by W.J. Lee, and Powerful Nation, ridden by A.J. Slattery, where it appeared the two horses bumped a couple of times. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the matter, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that no further action was warranted
The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident in the final hundred yards involving Tango Flare, ridden by L.T
McAteer, placed second, Queen Of Mougins, ridden by C.T.Hayes, placed fourth, Greatest Drama, ridden by B.M
Coen, placed third, and Varshini, ridden by J.M. Sheridan, placed sixth, where it appeared Varshini ran short of room. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. J.M. Sheridan stated that he ran short of room in the final fifty yards and had to take a check. L.T. McAteer stated that he felt he maintained his line. B.M. Coen stated that his filly may have marginally shifted right close to the line. C.T. Hayes stated that he was upsides Varshini throughout the final furlong and did not feel he came off a straight line. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards did not apportion blame to any rider and took no further action.
