Head of PR Charlie McCann: “The race turned into a four-furlong sprint and was a most unsatisfactory event, but Sweeps Hill did well to come again having been headed after the last. Runner up Some Present was left unchanged at 20/1 for the Supreme Novice and 16/1 for the Ballymore and the latter looks his more likely target although it would be foolish to read too much into a race run at a canter for the most part.”
