Took keen hold, led, headed and prominent after 3rd, led again 3 out, went clear from 2 out, good jump last, easily (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form, that gelding was suited by a different bit being used in a weaker race on this occasion) (op 4/1 tchd 18/5)
In touch with leaders, overjumped 1st, slightly hampered 4 out, ridden and outpaced when badly hampered by faller and nearly lost jockey 3 out, not recover (op 11/1 tchd 14/1)
Always towards rear, mistake 3rd, soon detached, mistake 4th, pulled up after 4 out (jockey said gelding was unsuited by the heavy going on this occasion and would prefer a sounder surface) (op 22/1 tchd 40/1)
