b g Dark Angel (IRE) - Box Of Frogs (IRE) (One Cool Cat)
Held up in rear, some progress after 5th, disputed 5th place after 3 out and going well enough, no headway after, no chance when blundered last, not without promise (jockey said, regarding running and riding of gelding, his instructions were to drop in and settle the gelding and to get him jumping as it was having its first start over hurdles. He added that it's previous run was on the flat over 11f on the All Weather, and he was therefore concerned with getting the gelding home on the Soft going over the 2 mile trip. He further added that he asked for an effort 3 hurdles out, the gelding did respond, but was not able to stay and tired quickly on the ground. trainer stated that the ride accorded with the instructions given and agreed that the gelding appeared not to stay on this occasion and that he would be looking to run gelding on faster ground next time) (Mkt1: op 33/1 tchd 50/1; Mkt2 tchd 33/1)
