Taken down early, in rear, going easily and headway from over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, nearest finish (an inquiry was held into the running and riding; jockey stated that her instructions were to drop gelding out to able her to get cover from a wide draw to allow her mount to settle having history of running keenly and stepping up in trip on this occasion and mount her challenge when the gaps appeared; jockey explained that having obtained her ideal position at the rear of the field, gelding settled well and was happily switched off; jockey added that on turning into the home straight the gelding was still travelling well into the race and knowing that her mount finishes his races with a strong surge she waited for a suitable time to ask for an effort; jockey further added that approximately 1 1/2f out when she began to nudge gelding she felt that Sub Thirteen to her outside had rolled in slightly therefore she decided to not proceed further into that gap until she felt safe to do so, having felt that she had clear running inside the final furlong she asked gelding for more of an effort; jockey concluded that under the circumstances she believed that the gelding had obtained the best possible placing; trainer confirmed the instructions and expressed his satisfaction with the ride considering gelding had to overcome a wide draw and had briefly ran too freely in the early stages) (op 9/1)
