Tracked leading pair, headway over 3f out, led over 2f out, ridden over 1f out, driven inside final furlong, kept on strongly (stewards considered the apparent improvement in form; trainer said gelding settled better with the re-application of a hood) (op 10/1 tchd 12/1)
Held up in rear, headway on wide outside 3f out, chased leaders well over 1f out, soon ridden and stayed on to chase winner inside final furlong, soon driven and no impression (op 5/1)
Awkward after start, held up towards rear, headway over 4f out, ridden along to chase leaders 3f out, driven 2f out and never dangerous (op 11/2 tchd 9/2)
Chased leaders on inner, pushed along 4f out, ridden 3f out, soon driven and weakened (jockey said gelding was unsuited by the soft going and would prefer a quicker surface) (op 4/1)
