Edwin Hubble made all the running to win the Watch Racing Tv Now Handicap Stakes (Div II) at Nottingham. The 9/2 joint-favourite was always prominent on the Good to Soft ground, was pushed along three furlongs out and responded well inside the final furlong, holding on by a short head from the fast-finishing Double Red. Double Red missed the break and raced at the back of the field early before making steady headway; he was asked to quicken over two furlongs out and came home strongly, just failing to get up on the line. Great Blasket finished a close third.
