Led, joined at 7th and headed from next, regained advantage 9th, jumped left 3 out and soon joined, headed before 2 out, soon no impression on winner, kept on one pace (op 12/1)
Tracked leaders, almost on terms when slight mistake 6th, led next until headed from 9th, slightly hampered 4 out and ridden in 4th before next, no impression on leaders when hampered 2 out, kept on one pace (op 3/1)
Held up, pushed along in 7th 3 out, no impression on leaders before next where left moderate 4th, kept on one pace (trainer said, regarding the running and riding, that he instructed the rider to give his mount a chance early on as he had not run since May, get him jumping, creep into the race and don't knock him about as he had encountered training problems with his stifles. He added that his charge made a slight mistake at the fourth last fence and lost his chance which he failed to regain. The exit of three runners at the second last fence left him in fourth place and he ran on in the latter stages without looking like reaching third place. He felt that his charge would improve a little for todays run and he had a respectable blow post race. He expressed his satisfaction with the jockey; jockey confirmed the trainers instructions and added that he was in contention racing to the fourth last fence but having corrected him on the approach to it, he lost ground and with the front runners quickening at that point his own mount was flat footed and he just pushed him along from that point without hitting him. He added that his mount took a blow at the fourth last fence but galloped on in the closing stages without being able to pass the third placed horse. He felt that he rode to his strongest ability and within his riding instructions)
Held up in touch, slight mistake in 4th at 6th, took closer order before 9th, headway going well to track leaders in 3rd before 2 out where fell (op 100/30)
