Bumped rival start, raced in second, pushed along and pressed leader 2f out, led 1f out, ridden and kept on well inside final furlong (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form, that gelding's previous run was in a large field and the race was not run to suit) (op 7/2)
Reared start then bumped start, took keen hold, prominent, pushed along and outpaced 2f out, ridden from over 1f out, kept on well and went third final strides (op 6/1 tchd 9/2 and tchd 13/2)
Steadied start, took keen hold, held up in rear, still plenty to do when shaken up 2f out, ridden and kept on inside final furlong, not reach leaders (op 15/2 tchd 6/1)
Dwelt start, raced freely, held up in rear, pushed along 3f out, ridden and struggling 2f out, weakened over 1f out (trainer's rep had no explanation for the poor form shown; jockey said colt stopped quickly) (op 5/2)
