Ramonti was the best horse on the day. Excellent Art never really travelled with much ease in the closing stages. He did close on Ramonti and it was tight on the wire, but Ramonti is such a tough horse, i think he might have pulled out more if he needed to.
Asiatic Boy ran a nice race in defeat on a track, which couldn't be more different from a left handed flat track on dirt. He seemed to get tired in the closing stages before finding his second wind. He would have finished 3rd with another few strides. Maybe he just lacked that race fitness, which the others had. He was a bit keen/rank early on and that might have cost him a little bit. Race fitness was probably the key here though.

He looked good, and seemed to cope with the conditions. As i said previously, i think it had more to do with race fitness more than anything else. I think they might kick themselves not for running at Royal Ascot, just to get that race into him, which would have left him spot on for this today.

Just as i thought.
"connections of Asiatic Boy reported that he blew up" "he needed the race badly" "this will bring him on for a possible tilt at at the Juddmonte International"
