Verdict

No hat-trick for Master Minded, who was never travelling sweetly and though he was pushed into contention turning for home, he had nothing left and faded into fourth. But BIG ZEB was always travelling like the winner and nabbed long-time leader Forpadydeplasterer approaching the last and ran out an impressive. last year's Arkle winner held on gamely for second and Kalahari King produced his customary late finish to take third just ahead of the fallen champion.
