In touch with leaders, smooth headway 8th, pushed along and went second after 3 out, switched right and pressed leader 2 out, led and went clear approaching last, good jump last, comfortably (trainer had no explanation for the apparent improvement in form) (op 17/2 tchd 8/1)
Prominent, pressed leader 7th, led 8th, going easily 3 out, not fluent 2 out, ridden and headed approaching last, soon outpaced, kept on but no impression run-in (op 14/1)
Towards rear, reminders 7th, mistake 9th, outpaced and plenty to do 3 out, keeping on when hit 2 out, stayed on approaching last, went remote third run-in (op 9/4)
Took keen hold, in touch with leaders, lost position 9th, weakened 3 out, pulled up before 2 out (jockey said gelding ran too free and stopped quickly; trainer's rep said, regarding the poor form shown, that gelding was unsuited by the going on this occasion, and would prefer a quicker surface) (op 4/1)
