Raced freely, towards rear, going okay but waiting for room 1f out, switched left and in the clear final 110yds, kept on towards finish, never near to challenge (jockey said his instructions were to settle gelding and obtain cover then ride his race from there; he added that he had found himself further back in the field than he had intended, after suffering interference shortly after start; he added that the pace was slow, and he thought field would race down centre of the track but instead runners drifted towards the outside stand rail; he added that when asking for an effort 1 1/2f out he found himself being denied a clear run, a fact which he reported at scales, before being able to ride out to the line inside the final 110yds to obtain, in his opinion, the best possible placing; trainer confirmed instructions and that ride accorded with instructions given, which was noted; vet said a post-race examination found gelding to be lame right-hind)
Took keen hold, in touch with leaders, pushed along 2f out, ridden over 1f out, weakened inside final furlong (jockey said gelding ran too freely) (op 11/2)
