| Sharp beginning, Prokofiev rockets to the front, stretches six clear in a strung-out single file, leads comfortably into the home turn in first, kicks on strongly in the straight and goes pillar-to-post, winning by about five at the finish. | ||||||||||||||||||

| Raced handily in third for most of the journey, poised well till the bend, but when pressure was applied in the straight, failed to find the expected acceleration, finishing sixth, has class, but perhaps did not stay the Derby trip — better suited to middle distances. | ||||||||||||||||||
