Towards rear, pushed along over 3f out, good headway 2f out, soon ridden and challenging, led 1f out, drifted right inside final furlong, kept on well (trainer's rep could offer no explanation for gelding's improved form) (Mkt1: op 9/1 tchd 11/1; Mkt2 op 8/1)
Awkward start, towards rear, pushed along and raced wide over 3f out, some headway over 2f out, soon ridden and, never dangerous (Mkt1: op 15/2 tchd 17/2; Mkt2 op 8/1)
Dwelt start, always towards rear (trainer's rep could offer no explanation for filly's poor performance, other than that she had missed break and settled back further than intended) (Mkt1: op 8/1 ; Mkt2 op 7/1)
Close up, ridden on outer 3f out, weakened over 2f out (Mkt1: op 25/1; Mkt2 op 28/1)
