In touch until outpaced in last 4f out and pushed along, started to stay on over 2f out, took 3rd over 1f out, closed quickly with winner to challenge 75yds out, just failed (op 9/2)
Awkward start but led, drew clear after 4f, 8 lengths up 3f out, looked like winning until tied up badly inside final furlong and headed last 75yds (op 13/8)
Chased clear leader to 3f out, soon ridden, weakened well over 1f out (jockey said gelding was reluctant to go to the start and failed to pick up when asked for an effort 2f out) (op 13/8 tchd 6/5)
