Made virtually all, going best home turn, 3 lengths clear 3 out, hung right under pressure flat but always holding rival (trainer said, regarding apparent improvement in form, that the gelding appreciated the step up in trip.) (op 10/1 tchd 12/1)
Jumped right, chased leaders, pushed along after 5th, slow jump and mistake 8th, ridden to go 3 lengths 2nd 3 out, no response to coaxing after and well held flat (op 10/3)
Took keen hold, went 2nd at 3rd, joined leader 7th, blundered next, ridden before 10th and blundered again, lost 2nd next, soon beaten, edged left flat (tchd 2/1)
Reluctant to line up, always in last and mostly off the bridle, mistake 3rd, reminders 5th, never looked keen, lost touch 8th, tailed off and pulled up 10th (tchd 16/1)
