Held up, not clear run and switched left inside final furlong, ran on well towards finish, not reach leaders (jockey said that her instructions were to sit mid division and wait as long as possible before delivering her finishing effort, tactics which have been employed successfully when she has won on the gelding in the past. However, having jumped well from the stalls, the gelding was shuffled back through the field in the early stages, meaning she ended up further out of her ground than intended, and the gelding was then unsuited by the pace steadying in the middle stages, which meant she became pocketed behind runners towards the inside rail approaching the home turn leaving her unable to improve the gelding's position. She added that in the early part of the home straight she was not clear of Zeb's Lad on her outside to shift wider, and shortly thereafter, the winner Kyllach Me shifted right in front of her causing the gelding to be denied a clear run) (op 10/1)
Raced wide, mid-division, ridden over 2f out, not clear run over 1f out, never on terms (jockey said that the gelding was denied a clear run in the home straight)
Chased leaders, ridden when not clear run over 1f out, weakened inside final furlong (trainers representative said that the gelding raced too freely) (op 8/1)
