Wore ear plugs, tracked clear leader, closer 3 out, led on bit before 2 out, 3 lengths ahead and going strongly when left clear 2 out, kept up to work run-in

Led and went clear 2nd, mistake 6th, reached for 4 out, reduced lead next, ridden and headed before 2 out, soon dropped to 3rd, left 2nd 2 out, no chance with winner

Tracked leading pair until 4th, pushed along and outpaced 3 out, left modest 3rd next

Held up well off the pace in last, weakened 8th, left remote 4th 2 out, tailed off

Never that fluent, raced keenly, tracked leaders in 4th, tracked leading pair 4th, awkward 7th, not fluent next, slight peck 3 out, pushed along in 3 lengths 2nd when fell 2 out
