Bumped and hampered between horses start, held up in touch, closer in 5th at halfway, headway to challenge entering final furlong, led going best inside final 150yds and extended advantage closing stages, won going away (trainer said, regarding apparent improvement in form, that the gelding disappointed on its last start never getting into it from a wide draw and benefited on this occasion on a track which it has previously won) (op 8/1)
Tracked leader early, 3rd halfway, headway to dispute under 2f out and led over 1f out, strongly pressed inside final furlong and headed under pressure inside final 150yds, no extra in closing stages (op 12/1)
Chased leaders until led after 1f, 1 length clear at halfway, still going well over 2f out, soon ridden and headed under pressure over 1f out, no extra in 3rd well inside final furlong, kept on same pace (op 7/2)
Slowly into stride and towards rear, 11th halfway, going well over 2f out and progress on inner, not clear run under 2f out, soon improved into 4th entering final furlong and kept on under hands and heels, never troubled leaders (op 8/1)
Forced slightly left start, towards rear, 10th halfway, ridden on outer 2f out and some headway under pressure into 6th inside final furlong, no impression on leaders well inside final furlong, kept on one pace to dead-heat for 5th
In rear of mid-division, 9th halfway, not much room behind horses over 2f out, soon pushed along and dropped to 10th 1 1/2f out, kept on inside final furlong (jockey said filly reared leaving the stalls) (op 100/30 tchd 9/2)
