Took keen hold, raced wide, in touch with leaders, ridden 2f out, good headway and led over 1f out, hung right but kept on well final furlong (trainer's rep said, regarding the apparent improvement in form, that gelding appeared to be suited by the return to the all-weather and benefitted from the first-time application of a tongue strap) (op 17/2)
Dwelt start, led soon after start, headed 2f out, weakened inside final furlong (trainer's rep had no explanation for the poor form shown other than colt became unbalanced on bend; vet examined colt post-race during routine testing and had nothing to report) (op Evens tchd 7/5)
