Held up towards the back - urged forward before responding from the final furlong - moved into 4th close home
Up with the pace early - a modest 3rd after the 3rd before easing back to 4th 4 out - up to 2nd 3 out - going strongly to share the front before 2 out - passed late - slipped to 3rd and found little extra at the finish
Settled in the pack - jumped scrappily at the 3rd - 6th at halfway - made progress after 3 out to join the front rank approaching the straight - left contesting the front approaching 2 out - forged ahead briefly before the last then pegged back - kept on gamely but went down by half a length
Settled midfield early - moved up into 5th with 3 to go and up to 2nd approaching the last - hit the front at the last - driven out and matched stride for stride on the run-in - couldn't find more and caught right on the line
