Django raced in sixth place, one off the rails, moved up at home turn and kept battling on well to take the minor placing.

Of the others Mr Utopia held on for (1 length) fourth after being handy all the way while the favourite State Solicitor disappointed, just battling on for (1.1 lengths) fi‑h after racing outside the leader to the home turn.
