Led early, headed 3rd, 2nd halfway, improve to dispute again before 4 out, led and pressed 3 out, ridden to assert 2 out, clear before last, kept on well (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form shown, that gelding is a big horse who has had intermittent training problems since winning his maiden hurdle two years ago; he added he was somewhat surprised by the win today, but since the horses's last run in May, he has changed his diet and perhaps this brought about the improvement.)
