Dwelt, held up, hung right from over 2f out, headway over 1f out, ran on to go 2nd well inside final furlong, not reach winner (jockey said, regarding the running and riding, her instructions were to bounce out from stall 1 and make the running. however the gelding was slowly away and then did not muster any early speed which meant he sat in last place and was much further back than intended. she added that the muddling pace of the race meant the gelding was too free and was inconvenienced 3f out. the gelding has a tendancy to hang right-handed and that was the reason not too rush him forward, instead keep him balanced and ask for an effort 2f out. trainer confirmed the instructions given) (op 13/8)
Slowly into stride, recovered to chase leader after 1f until ridden over 2f out, weakened over 1f out (vet reported the gelding was lame on its right hind) (op 20/1)
