After being slow into stride from a wide barrier, the horse was obliged to race wide before obtaining a position outside the leader near the 1000m.

Shifted out whilst rounding the home turn, and made heavy contact with HARADIFY (J. Oliver) which turned its hindquarters resulting in jockey J. Oliver momentarily losing the use of his offside rein.

Steadied from the heels of PHOENIX FLYER (App. M. Savva) when that runner crossed to a position outside the leader approaching the 1400m. Improved onto the heels of PHOENIX FLYER (App. M. Savva) when the pace slackened. Commenced to overrace and was steadied from heels approaching the 1200m.
