Conny Smythes Caryldon was an easy winner of the third event, which was run in the rain. Foden rode a confident race and had a snug hold of Caryldon until there remained only a quarter-mile to go. Tea Green was out in front, having supplanted Troy Maid hi the lead at the half-mile post. The Smythe colorbearer went into command when called upon and drew out steadily through the stretch, while Foden still had him in hand.
