  • Pos 8 9 Jul Newbury

    Settled towards the back - asked for effort and made modest progress inside 2f out - not a threat at any stage

  • Pos 2 14 Jun Salisbury

    Held up towards back and pulling hard early - pressed for effort and lost ground over 2f out - moved right and made progress inside final furlong - stayed on strongly to close but not quite reach winner

  • Pos 8 22 May Goodwood

    Settled just off the pace - driven and made progress over a furlong out - faded in the closing stages to finish 8th beaten 5 1/2 lengths

  • Pos 5 9 May Lingfield

    Settled with the main group early - pushed along and lost ground approaching the final 3f - unable to get involved from there - finished well beaten in 5th
