Chased leaders, improved into 3rd 2 out, led travelling well on outer before last and soon clear, eased further clear run-in, easily (trainers' rep said, reg app imp in form, gelding had been disappointing in the past but today he raced on Soft ground for the first time in his racing career and this is the only reason that he can forward for the improved performance) (op 10/1)
Mid-division, headway in 9th after 3 out to chase leaders after next, ridden in 3rd before last and no impression on easy winner run-in where went 2nd, kept on well (op 3/1)
Held up in mid-division, 7th after 3 out, progress after 2 out where not much room briefly, ridden into 5th before last and ran on into never threatening 3rd close home (op 12/1)
Chased leaders, 4th halfway, not fluent 3rd, took closer order behind leaders 3 out, almost on terms before next, disputed lead and led narrowly briefly after 2 out until ridden and headed before last, no impression on easy winner and weakened run-in (op 9/1)
In rear of mid-division, 11th after 3 out, pushed along and some headway after next, no impression on leaders in 6th at last, kept on run-in (op 33/1 tchd 28/1)
Mid-division for most, 8th after 3 out, hampered and checked after next, no impression before last where not fluent, kept on one pace run-in (op 14/1 tchd 16/1)
Chased leaders, 3rd halfway, ridden in 4th before 2 out and soon no extra, weakened after 2 out, eased towards rear before last (vet said gelding lost a right hind shoe but was otherwise post race normal) (op 7/2)
