THERE was plenty of good supporting action across the four days of York’s Ebor Meeting, at which no race was worth less than £70,000 added and the Ebor on Saturday remained Europe’s most valuable handicap with £285,000 added.

Of the major two-year-old races, the Gimcrack Stakes won by Sands Of Mali with a 110 timefigure was a fair bit better on the clock than the Lowther Stakes won by Threading with a 98, though neither threatened the likes of Unfortunately (116) and Expert Eye (114) at the head of the juvenile pecking order.
