The last-named was quickly dropped by the other two with Foxtail Hill, who had led from the off, battling grimly up the hill to deny the favourite a neck with Sizing Platinum 11 lengths adrift in third.<br /><br />Purchase of an upgrade to my current TV solution has unfortunately been further delayed; selection Vaniteux (20/1) vanished completely out of camera shot as they came up the hill - he trailed in a well-beaten seventh, some 20 lengths adrift.<br /><br />By contrast, as TW predicted, The Flyingportrait (25/1) ran prominently in second place for much of the race before fading from two out to finish ninth - a highly creditable effort.
