1st
Made virtually all - travelled strongly - disputed lead early - led clearly after 1st - nudged along and reduced lead before 2 out - ridden and ran on after last (trainer said - regarding the apparent improvement in form - that gelding ran very free when wearing a hood on his previous run and he felt that a combination of removing the hood and a change of tactics to front running had helped)(op 80/1 tchd 20/1 and 100/1)
