Tracked leaders on outer in 3rd, headway to challenge early straight and soon led, edged slightly left and headed 1f out, rallied under pressure inside final furlong to lead final strides (op 11/1)
Settled towards rear on inner, headway between horses to go 3rd 1f out, kept on well under pressure final furlong, not reach principals (op 5/2 tchd 2/1)
Towards rear, 9th entering straight, 6th on outer 1f out, stayed on well under pressure final furlong, nearest at finish (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form shown, that gelding was having his first run in approximately eight months last time, adding gelding had won previously when making the running and the same tactics were employed the last day but the horse, for no apparent reason, did not perform to his best. Today he decided to change tactics and get the horse to race from off the pace and this appeared to have the desired effect.) (op 14/1 tchd 16/1)
After a stewards' inquiry, the placings remained unaltered.
