    Sat close to the pace - up to second after two out then edged right and roused before an error at the last - kept on but couldn't close the gap up the run-in

    Held up towards rear of pack wide - closed on front group before 3 out - urged along 2 out - lost touch before last then stayed on late without threatening

  • Pos 1 24 Jan Cheltenham

    Settled off the pace - sat third early - pushed along and picked up strongly in the closing stages - hit the front approaching the finish to win
