Tracked leader in 2nd, led 5 out, ridden clear and stayed on well from 2 out, comfortably (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form, gelding is difficult to train as it is prone to bleeding and that it had bled from its left nostril post-race which the vet confirmed; he added vet had reported gelding to be lame behind after its last race and trainer had found him to have lost a shoe and to be tender on that foot; he was tried in cheekpieces today and new front-running tactics were employed) (op 9/2)
