Steadied start, held up in last pair, waiting for room over 2f out but plenty available when progress to lead over 1f out, shaken up and soon clear (op 5/4 tchd 11/10)
Tracked leaders, going better than most over 2f out, trapped behind rivals over 1f out as winner assumed command, shaken up and stayed on to take 2nd last 75yds, no chance to threaten (jockey said gelding was denied a clear run.)
Led, ridden and pressed over 2f out, headed and faded over 1f out (vet reported the gelding finished lame on its left-fore and lost its right-hind shoe.) (tchd 6/1)
Started slowly, took keen hold, held up in rear, progress on outer to track leaders 5f out, weakened 3f out, soon behind (jockey said the gelding ran too free.) (op 16/1)
