Dwelt start, held up in rear, switched right halfway, pushed along and steady headway against near rail from 2f out, nudged along over 1f out, ridden and led inside final 110yds, won going away (tchd 9/1)
In touch with leaders, pushed along over 2f out, ridden and chased clear leader towards near side over 1f out, edged left and stayed on but lost second inside final furlong, no extra towards finish (op 7/1)
Held up in last, soon detached, pushed along and still plenty to do over 2f out, steady headway against near rail from over 1f out, switched left and ran on final 110yds, not reach leaders, too much to do, eyecatcher (jockey said his instructions were to try and take gelding back as he can run keen, and to let gelding finish his race; he added that he became further detached than he had wanted, due to what he considered to be too strong a pace on the stiff track here at Newcastle; he further added that he asked for his effort inside the 3f marker and felt gelding responded well and finished to the best of its ability, which was noted; vet had nothing to report) (op 20/1)
Never going well, midfield, outpaced on far side of group over 2f out, soon dropped to rear, no impression inside final furlong (jockey said gelding was never travelling) (op 7/2)
Took keen hold, prominent, outpaced and lost position over 2f out, weakened quickly on far side of group over 1f out (trainer's rep had no explanation for the poor form shown; vet had nothing to report) (op 8/1 tchd 17/2)
