5th
Prominent - lost ground before 8th - in touch with leaders before 3 out - weakened before last (an inquiry into the running and riding; jockey explained that his priority was to sit prominently and to race with cover as his mount has a tendency to race keenly; he added that as the pace was provided by Gowel Road who raced to the inside he elected to remain behind this runner resulting in him taking his line; he fiuurther added gelding handles testing conditions well in addition to staying further - so he was not concerned about racing on this more worn line; trainer's rep had no explanation for the poor form shown)(op 6/4)
