Blundered badly at the start, recovered to be close up tracking the pace, raced up to the lead 400M, kept going well to hold rivals at bay.

Settled down in mid-division 3-4Ls off the good pace, no clear run early straight then stayed on well over final 250M, got up 2nd near line.

Sent forward, 3-wide early stages, crossed to the rail 1100M, sat behind leaders making the turn for home, fought on well holding his position, lost 2nd near line.

Held up behind midfield, shuffled back to near the rear middle stages, brought wide home turn, closed off final 400M fastest, nearest finish.

Caught wide first turn from 14, strolled forward and crossed to the lead near 800M, headed top of straight, one paced final 200M.

Always within 3Ls of leader, kept on mildly over final 350M, never a serious threat to leaders.

Slow to muster speed despite ridden along, not far off the pace first half of the race but got shuffled back to near the rear before home turn, closed off moderately making up some lost ground over final 300M.

Held up 4Ls back in midfield, 3-wide throughout, couldn't accelerate enough to challenge leaders inside 300M.

Settled down 4-5Ls behind midfield, kept on one pace when placed under pressure top of straight, no impression on leaders. (Lame next day with tendon injury.)

Eased back on jumping from gate 1, 2nd last well off the pace, 3-wide bid from 600M, never going the pace to challenge.

Restrained near the rear, no cover from 1200M, strode forward to join leaders 650M, run ended soon after straightening, weakened 300M.

Prominent early stages, tracked leaders but came under pressure 800M and fell back to midfield, had nothing to offer in straight, eased 150M when no chance.

Taken across behind runners from wide draw, in last over 10Ls off the pace early stages, fanned widest home turn but couldn't pick up to challenge.

Held up behind midfield, proved very difficult to settle 1100M, remained in similar position to home turn, eased passing 500M. (No Vet findings / Unacceptable Performance.)
