Restrained from a wide barrier to obtain a position closer to the rail. Raced ungenerously early whist being restrained to obtain a position with cover. Continued to over race until leaving the 1400m. Held up rounding the home turn.

When asked to comment on the performance of the gelding, Rdr stated, gelding may not have been suited to the step up in distance. A post-race vet exam revealed gelding to have slow recovery.
