Raced very keenly in the early stages. Near the 1200m obliged to steady from heels and was forced wider. Continued to race ungenerously for some distance after.

Re-shod on arrival to the course & vetted. Shortly after the start shifted out abruptly. Rdr reported wasn’t intention to lead but shortly after jumping away, mount shifted out abruptly and as such continued to push forward to obtain a leading position.
