Took keen hold - in touch with leaders - disputing second when not fluent 5 out - dropped to last before 3 out - soon weakened - tailed off (trainer's rep said - regarding the poor form shown - that gelding was unsuited by the ground - described as good (good to soft in places) - and would prefer a slower surface; vet examined gelding post-race and had nothing to report)(op 10/3)
