settled in the pack early - sixth at the 6th - dropped away 4 out - faded without ever threatening - was eased and pulled up approaching 3 out
Near the front early - slipped back through the field after the 2nd - down in 7th by the 7th and 6th at the 9th - improved position after 4 out into 4th by 2 out - unable to threaten the front-runners in modest 3rd approaching the last - held on in a modest 4th to the finish
Sat behind front group - 5th at halfway - asked for effort turning in and moved up inside to 3rd approaching final furlong - driven out after last and edged into 2nd near the line
Settled in touch sharing 4th - pushed along and still 4th 3f out - unable to close on pace setters - finished 4th well beaten
