Slowly into stride, soon chasing leaders, ridden, held head high and outpaced over 2f out, rallied and switched right 1f out, edged left but ran on well to go 2nd last 100yds, not reach winner (op 16-1 tchd 20-1)
Steadied after start, held up in last, crept nearer over 3f out, switched right over 1f out, soon ridden, stayed on to go 3rd near finish, not pace to threaten winner (op 4-1 tchd 7-2 and 5-1)
Took keen hold, held up in last pair, headway 4f out, every chance and ridden over 1f out, unable to quicken, lost 2 places last 100yds (op 22-1 tchd 20-1)
Raced awkwardly and wanting to hang throughout, led until 3f out, weakened over 2f out, no chance from over 1f out (jockey said gelding hung badly right throughout) (op 15-8 tchd 5-2)
