Disputed early, tracked leaders in 3rd, headway to lead approaching 2 out, ridden and kept on under pressure run-in, held on (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form shown, that gelding was having its first run in a handicap last time and that there was persistent rain throughout the day which turned the ground against it; he added that his yard is in better form now, both in point-to-points and at the track, than earlier in the season; he said that this, combined with the better ground today, may have contributed to the horse's return to form.)
