John Ryan 126 lbs 5/1 0.3 Travelled strongly - towards rear - going okay but still plenty to do when switched to centre over 1f out - soon nudged along - kept on well inside final furlong - hung right towards finish - nearest finish (jockey said - regarding running and riding - that his instructions were to hold up the gelding in mid-field with cover and to bring it through for a late run - challenging through horses. He explained that he has ridden and won on the gelding previously when riding in a similar manner and - in his experience - it needs to be kept on the bridle for as long as possible. He added that - in his opinion - due to the slow early pace the field was compacted - preventing him from obtaining a clear run until the final stages of the race - a fact which he reported to scales. He continued that after obtaining a clear run the gelding picked up and finished strong in the closing stages; vet reported that a post-race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities)(op 4/1)
