Held up and behind, headway on wide outside well over 1f out, soon ridden and stayed on strongly final furlong (jockey said, regarding the running and riding, that his instructions were to drop the gelding out, but that the gelding, who is a difficult ride, became significantly detached in rear. He added that the gelding was able to run on once he hit the rising ground, passing tired horses in what was a fast-run race. He further stated that the gelding would not have finished closer for more vigorous riding in the early stages) (tchd 22-1)
