Enjoyed all the favors settling 3 back the fence. Speared through along the inside to take the lead near the furlong and maintained a good gallop right to the wire.

Checked on jumping settling worse than midfield, 2 deep with cover. Peeled out to race 3 deep with cover after the 600m, left a bit flatfooted approaching the home turn. Responded well to pressure closing off nicely.

Midfield on the fence, not suited by the slow pace, lacked room 200M, dashed well for 3rd.

Camped midfield, 2 wide with cover. Ranged up as some hope near the furlong, before peaking on its run 100m out. Stayed on to make the frame.

Led along the paint setting slow early fractions. Dictated terms nicely but couldn't capitalize and weakened inside the last 100m.

Slotted in 1 out 1 back by the time the field had settled after the 1200m. Rounded the home bend about 5 deep and finished off evenly after being disappointed for running near the 150m.

Had every possible chance after sitting outside the leader. Was running on empty over the final stages, no excuses.

Travelled in last position along the fence. Only plodded to the line.

Settled with the backmakers along the paint after being checked at the start. Found little when asked for an effort in the home straight.

Camped midfield, got cover after the 1200m, and settled 3 deep. Failed to make any appreciable ground in the final stretch.

Taken back from a wide barrier and settled at the rear, 1 of with cover. Peeled out and attempted to roll forward after the 600m. Found little and struggled in the run home.

Raced prominently but was posted 3 wide without cover for most of the trip. Never likely weakening noticeably over the concluding stages. (See Racing Incident report).
