Sat close up early behind the front-runner - hit one badly heading into the straight - lost momentum and asked for effort before 2 out - could make no headway in 4th and stayed one-dimensional to the line
held up towards the back - driven along without threatening after 3 out - continued at one speed before a modest third at the last
Settled towards the back of the pack early - moved through into 7th - shared the advantage 3 out before taking control 2 out - kicked clear starting the straight - pushed out after the last - caught close to the line finishing second
Sat close to the pace early - third at halfway - driven on after 4 out - unable to find more after the following fence - finished 11th well beaten
