Held up at the back - dropped away with 2f left - never on terms - well beaten in 16th
Sat fourth early - driven approaching final furlong and edged into third close home - always held finishing 3rd
went straight to the front - driven and drifted left with a furlong left - overtaken inside the final 110 yards and faded quickly
Fought for control early - settled mid-pack - pressed for effort inside final two furlongs and stayed on at one speed to finish 12th
