Attended the pace, crossed to the lead nearing 600M, going well turning into straight, hard pressed 250M, gave everything and just held on.

Slow to begin, travelled well in a rearward position, driven to chase winner 300M, ran on strongly final 200M and closed in on the leader with every stride, just held.

Away well, gained a position just behind leader and eventual winner, loomed a threat 350M, kept on well under urge but unable to make headway on winner, no extra final stages.

Driven forward setting early pace, gave up the lead nearing home turn, kept on same pace when driven, held on for a non-threatening 4th.

Restrained in mid-division along the 2-path, kept on same pace turning in, never a serious threat to leaders.

Crossed to a 3-wide position behind midfield, had to be nudged along 600M from home, made little progress final 300M, never troubled leaders.

Dropped back to near the rear, made limited progress final 300M, never reached contention.

Slowly away but soon recovered, saved ground on the inside and never far off from leaders, short of room early straight but not going the pace to challenge once a clear run presented.

Began only fairly, went closer to pace under urge, 3-wide no cover turning home, kept on one pace, weakened towards finish.

Caught 3-wide towards the rear from draw 12, never travelled and came under serious pressure from 600M, no impression.

Settled behind midfield along the inside, not picked up turning home, soon beaten.

Dwelt, niggled along throughout but never going the pace, 8Ls off leaders passing 400M, never involved.
