    Set the pace early - lost front spot before the 2nd and settled just behind the new pacesetter - urged forward after the 4th from home - lost ground before 3 out and finished well held

  • Pos 1 16 Jul Worcester

    shared the early advantage - went in front at the 3rd under pressure at intervals - driven to meet a rival's bid 4 out - asked again before 2 out and matched strides through a tight tussle - fought back run-in to prevail by a whisker

  • Pos 6 22 May Worcester

    Set the pace early - pressed for effort before 3 out where overtaken - dropped away after 2 out - finished sixth

  • Pos PU 27 Mar Wetherby
