Albertino Lad, from a yard which has returned to form with a vengeance this week, ran a fine race in defeat. There must surely be something similar waiting to be won with him. Loulou Nivernais made a bold bid, but his jumping, at times, left something to be desired and a blunder two out may have cost him dearly. Amarula Ridge, given an admirable waiting ride, had every chance going to two out, but failed to get home as well as the principals under these conditions.
