New course record to Rain Affair & now 7 successive wins
Obviously handy

Track was conducive to fast times but still obviously a top effort
Read that the trainer almost scratched Rain Affair due to the hard track!
The horse having a let-up now

Jest Crewsin’ 2nd in this race unplaced next start
Interesting to see how things pan out for Rain Affair after the let-up
