Shaken up after the start, emerged as leader 550M, drew clear top of straight and kept on powerfully to the line giving rivals no chance.

From widest gate switched off to race in last, over 6Ls to make up 400M, closed off fastest to claim 2nd close home but not reach runaway winner.

Stayed in touch with leaders throughout, moved up to 2nd place top of the straight, tried hard but couldn't get closer to the leader, lost 2nd final stages but held 3rd comfortably.

Dropped back to a rearward position 5-6Ls back, commenced his challenge down the inside on straightening, ran past beaten horses but couldn't quicken enough to pose any threat to first three.

Restrained to a 3-wide position 5-6Ls towards the rear, still last at 200M, made some ground late to claim a non-threatening 5th.

Went forward, caught racing wide no cover outside leaders, ran on one paced in the straight.

Jumped on terms, settled down in mid-division, hung out making first turn losing one or two length, ran on final over 300M without threatening leaders.

Jumped only fairly, near the rear early stages before improving to a midfield spot home turn, battled on one paced early straight, faded final 200M.

Jumped only fairly from draw 10, failed to show sufficient pace to hold a more forward position, caught 3-wide in midfield, lacked finishing effort final 300M. (Jockey : raced "flat" / No Vet findings.)

Up with early pace before obtaining a trailing spot behind leaders, fell back to midfield 400M, unable to finish the race off. (No Vet findings.)

Obtained a position outside the lead early stages, came under pressure 500M before weakening in the home straight to finish last. (Trainer : may race better when able to obtain cover.)
