In touch with leaders, went third with one circuit to go, went second 12th, pecked on landing 3 out, 3 lengths down last, stayed on but no match for winner (op 9/2)
Jumped right on occasions, raced in third, hit 4th, not fluent 5th, lost position with one circuit to go, dropped to last 9th, mistake 10th, went modest fourth 5 out, soon tailed off (jockey said gelding stopped quickly; vet said a post-race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities) (tchd 8/1)
Kept away from others at start, jumped right on occasions, led, headed 8th, lost position 11th, weakening when hampered 5 out, tailed off when pulled up before 4 out (tchd 8/1)
Whipped round start, very slowly away, pulled up soon after start (jockey said gelding whipped around after the starting tape released and was very reluctant to race, and by the time gelding consented to eventually jump off, it quickly became apparent that he had virtually lost all chance of being competitive after forfeiting approximately 50 lengths and had therefore elected to pull gelding up) (op 6/4)
