Raced freely, midfield, pushed along and headway 2f out, pressed leader when ridden and drifted left 1f out, disputed lead final 110yds, led clearly final strides (trainer could offer no explanation for mare's apparent improvement in form) (op 11/1 tchd 8/1)
In rear, pushed along and headway on outer 2f out, ridden and disputed lead from 1f out, drifted right inside final 110yds, no extra final strides, just held (op 3/1)
Took keen hold, in touch with leaders, pushed along 2f out, soon waiting for room, switched right and ridden 1f out, held but kept on inside final furlong (tchd 9/2)
In rear, pushed along 2f out, ridden and some headway over 1f out, keeping on when short of room final 110yds, eased towards finish (jockey said gelding was denied a clear run in the final half furlong resulting in him being unable to push out the gelding as vigorously as he would have liked) (tchd 12/1)
Prominent against near rail, pushed along over 3f out, ridden and weakened over 2f out (trainer could offer no explanation for the poor form shown other than a report from the jockey that the gelding stopped quickly; vet said a post-race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities) (op 5/2 tchd 10/3)
