In touch with leaders, pushed along over 2f out, steady headway on near side of group from over 1f out, went second inside final 110yds, stayed on (Mkt1: op 12/1 tchd 20/1; Mkt2 op 16/1)
Held up in rear, raced in last 4f out, going okay but plenty to do over 2f out, raced extremely wide home turn, pushed along over 1f out, ran on well inside final furlong, went third towards finish, eyecatcher (Mkt1: tchd 40/1)

Held up in rear, waiting for room 2f out, brief headway on inner over 1f out, weakened final 110yds (Mkt1: op 7/2 tchd 10/3 and tchd 6/1; Mkt2 op 11/2)
Midfield, outpaced 2f out, raced wide home turn, soon weakened (trainer's rep said, regarding the poor form shown, that gelding made a respiratory noise) (Mkt1: op 8/1 tchd 17/2; Mkt2 op 4/1)
