Held up, shaken up briefly approaching 3 out, weakened from next (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that his orders were to get the mare to settle as it was very keen on its previous run, they considered making the running but decided against as it was still inexperienced having had only one run over hurdles, he crept into the race leaving the back straight and made an effort from the third last when he thought it would run into a place but it became tired at the second last; trainer confirmed, adding that she thought the mare would become a stayer but is still very weak.)
