Vento Voce stamped an authoritative return after a five month break to claim his second graded stakes success after winning the Keeneland Cup back in 2022.

With three horses progressing smoothly at the head of affairs, Vento Voce crept to the front without even being asked by his jockey and drew away his rivals in the home straight. Making light work of the uphill finish, he secured victory in a time of 1:07.4. The win also gained him a spot in the G1 Takamatsunomiya Kinen on 26th March.

Odds-on favourite Jubilee Head finished fifth after struggling in the last furlong.
