  Settled in the pack early - hampered around 2½f out - pushed along but couldn't find more from 2f out - well held at the finish

• Pos 11 4 Oct Curragh

  Settled just behind the pace early and pulling hard - still 2nd with 3f left but soon asked for effort - slipped to 3rd approaching the final 2f - faded from there to finish well beaten in 11th

• Pos 5 5 Jun Leopardstown

  Slow into stride and drifted right at the break - settled towards the back of the pack - up to 5th after 2f - unable to find extra when asked with a furlong and a half to go and lost ground late to finish 5th

• Pos 15 12 May Roscommon

  Sluggish start settling near the back - drifted wide entering straight - urged with two furlongs left but found nothing more - eventually well held in 15th
