Allowed to drop back to sixth off the moderate early gallop, she was swung wide for a clear run when the sprint for home began.

It took a while for Kleo to start making inroads as the leaders still had plenty left due to going slow early. Her jockey was patient and didn’t hurry her. As a result when the leaders did finally begin to flag she was able to sweep on by to score by nearly four lengths despite running a little green.
