Sat handy behind the front group early - dropped away inside the final furlong under pressure - faded to finish ninth
Handy early - closed on pace-setter inside final furlong but drifted left and clipped another runner - soon dropped away to finish well beaten
Handy near the pace on the near rail - asked for effort with 2f to go - dropped away inside the final furlong - eventually well held in 11th
Held up mid-pack - driven approaching final 2f - unable to close from the final furlong - finished 7th
