Went left start, soon led, ridden 2f out, driven and headed 1f out, battled back under pressure to lead again inside final furlong, edging left and held on well towards finish (stewards considered the apparent improvement in form; trainer said gelding had been better suited by the quicker good to firm, good in places ground on this occasion and the drop in class)
In touch in midfield and niggled along at times, headway to chase winner and edged left under pressure over 2f out, led 1f out, driven and headed inside final furlong, kept on but always just held after (op 7/4 tchd 2/1)
Held up in touch in rear of main group, not clearest of runs over 2f out, ridden to chase leading pair and edged right over 1f out, no impression and weakened inside final furlong (op 6/1)
Steadied start, took keen hold, held up in touch, closed to chase leaders when badly hampered just over 2f out, no chance with leaders after, kept on to go modest 4th inside final furlong (tchd 8/1)
Chased winner until halfway, losing place whedm not much room entering final 2f, soon dropped and weakened final furlong (jockey said the colt had lost the right-fore shoe) (op 11/2 tchd 4/1)
