I can\u2019t recall a horse which, after seven races had had neither won nor lost two races in a row. Anyway, <B style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal\">Peace Alley<\/B> continued on his up and down path, trouncing a quality packed field by a comfortable length and a quarter.<\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><B style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal\"><?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/B><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\">An early breakneck speed tussle obviously set the race up for those horses blessed with more patient jockeys. <B style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal\">Diligence, Roesch Hi <\/B>and<B style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal\"> Forestforthetrees<\/B> all jumped well and searched for the lead.
