Settled behind the pace-setter - Improved to hit the front over 2f out and was driven to stay there past 1f out - Came under pressure inside the final furlong and was overtaken near the line
Set the pace from the start - overtaken 3f out before being roused to retake the front 2f out - driven over 1f out - stayed on inside the final furlong to win
Held handy early - urged forward with two furlongs left - dropped away inside final furlong - finished well held in 13th
Settled in the pack early - lost touch and toiling by halfway - slipped to the back travelling wide into the turn - well adrift with no prospect and allowed to finish handily - well held at the line
