Towards rear, headway before 6th, in touch with leaders before 3 out, weakened home turn, pulled up before last (trainer could offer no explanation for the poor form shown; vet examined gelding post race and had nothing to report) (op 5/1 tchd 8/1)
Didn't always jump with fluency, towards rear, headway before 6th, lost ground after 7th, weakened after 3 out, soon pulled up (trainer could offer no explanation for poor form shown other than gelding may be feeling the effects of a long season; vet examined gelding post race and had nothing to report) (op 10/1)
