Jumped slowly 1st, behind, headway to chase leader 4 out, led approaching 2 out, narrowly headed last, no extra near finish (op 5-1 tchd 8-1 in a place)
Always behind (connections said instructions were to settle gelding and ride the race from that position but that gelding began to hang turning into the straight for the first time and continued to hang from there on) (op 5-1 tchd 7-1 in places)
Chased leader until approaching 4 out, soon weakened, tailed off when pulled up before 2 out (trainer later said gelding had pulled a muscle in its back) (tchd 7-2 in places and 4-1 in a place)
