With likely pace angle Frankuus (Frankel) unwilling to enter the stalls, it was last season’s Gr.2 winner Eminent (Frankel) who led, tracked by Forest Ranger (Lawman) and War Decree (War Front). Restrained in front by Oisin Murphy, the leader slowed the pace down from around the six pole. He was ridden along three out, but was soon back peddling. Meanwhile, Forest Ranger loomed on his outer and, having gone clear entering the home straight, he kept on gamely to record a length and a quarter win. War Decree ran on for second, two and a half lengths ahead of the late-finishing veteran Gabrial (Dark Angel). Eminent proved a bitter disappointment, trailing home last, beaten over 13 lengths by the winner. A winner on each of this three seasons, Forest Ranger has now done something which he had not done previously and backed up a victory with another win. Gelded over the winter, the Yeguada de Milagro-bred bay landed the Gr.3 Earl of Sefton Stakes at Newmarket last month, his first success in Stakes company.
