Towards rear, headway 3 out, pushed along and chased leaders after 2 out, led approaching last, went clear run-in, eased towards finish, cosily (trainers rep said, regarding improved form, that the gelding did not get home or jump great in the heavy ground conditions at Cork whereas today the sounder underfoot conditions, the shorter distance of the race and his fluent jumping all contributed to the return to form) (op 7/2)
Held up in behind leaders, headway 5th, good jump and went second 5 out, briefly led towards near side after 2 out, headed approaching last, jumped right and lost second last, rallied and went second towards finish, no match for winner (jockey said mare ran too keen early on) (op 5/2)
Midfield, headway and chased leaders from 3 out, pushed along and went second approaching last, ridden and no impression run-in, lost second towards finish (op 5/1 tchd 4/1)
Didn't jump well, reluctant to race, pushed along in rear early, not fluent 1st, mistake 4th, no impression and became detached from 2 out, never going well (op 6/1 tchd 15/2)
