With twenty four lady riders keen to acquire the diamond necklace on offer to the winner, Andrew Balding’s Arctic Desert with Irish amateur Liz Lalor (having her first ride in England) was always up with the pace and put in a determined challenge in the final furlong but John Best’s Mine Behind and Kylie Manser got up by a head to be first past the post. Emma Folkes on Dave Evans’s Hazewind was a length away in 3rd with Sarah Bosley a short head back in 4th on Tony Carroll’s Nautical.
