Content to settle close 3rd from 4th in very slowly run race, went 2nd before 14th, led approaching 3 out, well in command next, heavily eased flat (old market op 11-2 tchd 6-1 new market op 7-2)
Led before 3rd until 5th, reminder 11th, chased leader until before 14th, outpaced next, 20 lengths 3rd before 3 out, rallied after next, went 2nd behind very easy winner 100yds out (old market tchd 40-1 new market op 33-1)
Set sedate pace from 5th, dived at 7th and not fluent 10th, driven and headed before 3 out, 6 lengths down and beaten next, lost poor 2nd final 100yds (new market)
Jumped wildly right and hopelessly tailed off until veered right and unseated rider 5th (new market op 33-1)
