Broke well to lead until soon settled behind leader, close 2nd halfway, ridden to lead 1 1/2f out, soon strongly pressed and headed under pressure over 150yds out, no chance with winner, kept on same pace (op 11/2)
Held up, 7th halfway, ridden from 2f out and some headway on outer into moderate 5th inside final furlong, kept on towards finish, never troubled leaders (op 14/1)
Soon chased leaders, 3rd halfway, ridden into straight and no impression on leaders, weakened from 1 1/2f out (trainer reported colt was lame the following morning)
Very slowly away and detached in rear, took closer order halfway, ridden and no extra 2f out, weakened and eased (jockey said colt raced reluctantly on leaving stalls) (op 16/1)
