5th
Held up in rear - still plenty to do before 3 out - some headway before 2 out - no telling impression (inquiry held into running and riding; jockey said that his instructions were drop in and settle filly this being her hurdle debut; he added that filly has raced keenly for being ridden prominently in her last two bumper runs and felt that it was important to ride filly towards rear to try to relax and find a good rhythm; he also added that she was jumping careful at several flights and felt filly was racing at full speed leaving back straight to then stay on at one pace under a hands and heels ride up home straight to finish fifth - which in his opinion had obtained best possible placing; his explanation was noted)(op 66/1)
