In rear, no impression from 3 out, kept on same pace (jockey said, regarding the running and riding, that his instructions were to get the gelding settled towards the rear of the field, creep into the race gradually and to do his best, adding that the gelding was slightly hampered at the second hurdle, reached for the third hurdle, hit a flat patch down the back straight before staying on at one pace in the last 4f and that he had ridden the gelding to the best of his ability, slapping him down the shoulder continually from halfway down the back straight; trainer confirmed instructions, adding that the gelding has a history of running free and a tendency to launch himself at an obstacle if allowed to run free, suggesting the gelding would improve significantly when encountering better ground and a longer trip.)
