4th
Held up in behind leaders - mistake 3 out - weakened 2 out (stewards inquired into running and riding; vet said a post-race examination of the gelding - during routine testing - failed to reveal any abnormalities; jockey said his instructions were to settle the gelding in a handy to mid-division position and ride the race as he found it; he added that gelding had travelled nicely for him through the early and middle stages - despite being a bit green and jumping slowly at some of his hurdles; he said that gelding had made a significant jumping error at the third last hurdle - losing valuable ground and momentum which necessitated him having to drive the gelding along for some distance when approaching the home turn in order to recover his position; he further added that gelding was inclined to lug left-handed in the home straight and was not entirely fluent at the second last hurdle either - at which point he was given a reminder with the whip before jumping the last hurdle cleanly and staying on one-paced through to the line - and in his opinion the gelding had obtained the best possible placing; jockey also indicated that as he matures and strengthens up - gelding may appreciate a step up in trip; his explanation was noted)(op 66/1)
