Walked to post, hampered start, held up in rear, shaken up over 2f out, headway and edged left from over 1f out, ridden to lead final 110yds, ran on (trainer said, regarding improved form, that the filly had appreciated returning to a small field on this occasion, where she could avoid racing on the inside of other horses, after having been drawn in stall 1 on its previous run) (op 10/1)
Got loose beforehand, slowly into stride and squeezed out start, held up in rear, shaken up and headway when edged left over 1f out, not clear run and switched right inside final furlong, ran on, not reach leaders (jockey said gelding was denied a clear run for a considerable distance in the home straight, until it was inside the final furlong) (op 12/1)
Pushed along to lead, headed but chased leaders over 8f out, going easily 2f out, shaken up and every chance over 1f out, soon ridden, no extra towards finish (tchd 8/11)
Chased leaders, went second over 6f out, shaken up to lead over 2f out, ridden and headed over 1f out, no extra inside final 110yds (op 20/1 tchd 18/1 and tchd 25/1)
Took keen hold, tracked leaders, steadied and lost position over 7f out, pushed along over 2f out, ridden and weakened over 1f out (trainer could offer no explanation for the mare's performance other than it may have ran flat on this occasion) (op 13/2 tchd 6/1)
