Raced in rear, bit closer with a circuit to race, progress on inner after 3 out, short of room and bumped approaching 2 out where disputed, led after last and stayed on well to draw clear in closing stages (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement of form, that gelding finished last at Galway in a hurdle race and followed this run back in a steeplechase at Tramore where he failed to handle the track over the minimum distance of two miles, racing over fences over a longer trip contributed to today's victory) (op 16/1)
