Held up towards rear, headway halfway, chased leaders when not much room 2f out, ridden to chase leading pair over 1f out, driven and kept on towards finish (jockey said gelding was denied a clear run) (op 8/1 tchd 7/1)
Dwelt and in rear, some headway final 2f, never near leaders (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that his orders were to drop the gelding in at the rear and creep into the race, he had become further detached than he had wanted due to the fast early pace, he steadily made ground and was tagged on to the main body of the field from a mile out, he then found horses coming back at him approaching the final bend and had to switch wide before he could make his full challenge in the home straight and plugged on through beatern horses; vet said gelding returned 2/5 lame left-hind, which downgraded to 1/5 after a walk-down)
Close up, led after 1f, ridden along 3f out, headed over 2f out and soon weakened (trainer's rep said gelding was unsuited by the good, good to soft ground, which he considered was too quick for him) (op 3/1 tchd 7/2)
