Signoff winning the Lexus Stakes Picture: Racing and Sports

Big Memory had an ideal run in third place to the turn. He went to second at the 200m and then fought on to hold that position to the post, having no chance with the winner.

La Amistad was back in seventh place, one off the rails, put in a run on turning for home and kept battling on for (4.5 lengths) third while the second favourite Caravan Rolls On was a handy sixth to the turn but failed to run on, finishing a disappointing (9.1 lengths) eighth.
