Held up in touch, 5th halfway, driven near side 2f out and no impression on leaders under pressure over 1f out, kept on one pace in 5th inside final furlong (op 7/1)
Towards rear early, pushed along in rear from halfway and no impression into straight, ridden 2f out and kept on one pace into moderate 6th inside final furlong, never a factor
