Relegated to the latter third of the Emirates field after a slow dispatch, Tosen Stardom remained inside and crept his way into a midfield berth at the halfway point.

But the gap came between Odeon (NZ) (Zacinto {GB}) and It=s Somewhat (Dynaformer) soon after and Tosen Stardom squeezed through before really leaping out of the ground in the final half-furlong.
