Made all, not fluent 3rd, faced challenge home straight, increased tempo before 2 out, ridden approaching last, kept on well run-in, all out (trainer's rep could offer no explanation for the apparent improvement in form) (op 5/2 tchd 16/5)
Raced in second, pressed leader entering home straight, not fluent 2 out, lost ground approaching last, rallied and kept on well run-in (jockey said gelding hung left-handed in home straight) (tchd 11/4)
In touch with leaders, headway after 3 out (usual 4 out), prominent entering home straight, outpaced and lost position before 2 out, no extra approaching last (op 14/1)
The first hurdle in the straight was omitted due to area of standing water on the landing side.
