b g Oratorio (IRE) - Amathusia (Selkirk)
Held up in last pair, detached in last over 2f out and nudged along, reminder final furlong, never involved (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that his orders were to ride the race as he found it, to hold the gelding up if there was plenty of pace or to make the running if there was none, but, importantly, to get it to finish, having been disappointing on numerous occasions, it broke and travelled well and he felt the pace was such that he was happy to hold up towards the rear, the field steadied down the back straight before quickening from 4f out from which point it was outpaced) (tchd 50/1)
