Tracked the pack on the far rail early - pushed along to narrow gap 2f out - unable to find more and stayed on same gear to finish sixth
handy early - soon sat in behind the front pack - asked for more at halfway - under continued pressure 2f out with nothing more to offer
Settled just behind the front pair early - fourth turning halfway - pushed along into third with a furlong left - held on for the placing but edged out of second right at the line
Made early running on the far flank - lost command and lay third by halfway - pushed along soon after - closed hard on the pacesetter inside the final furlong - stayed on to snatch second at the line
