  • Win: £11.60
  • Place: £3.30

prominent, went second 12th, not fluent 5 out, led 2 out, 2 lengths ahead last, ridden run-in, reduced lead towards finish, just did enough

10/1

  • Place: £3.60

in touch with leaders, headway and pressed leader 5th, led 10th, ridden when not fluent and headed 2 out, 2 lengths down last, stayed on, just held

15/2

  • Place: £3.20

led narrowly, headed and pressed leader before 4th, outpaced 4 out, rallied approaching last, stayed on and went third final strides

pressed leader, led narrowly before 4th, not fluent and headed 10th, pushed along after 5 out, hit 4 out, soon outpaced, mistake 2 out, stayed on run-in

in touch with leaders, switched right and headway on outer 4 out, challenging 3 out, outpaced after 2 out, 5 lengths third last, weakened and lost two places inside final 110yds

in rear, hampered by faller 6th, stayed on run-in, never dangerous

OUR TIP

towards rear, some headway on outer before 3 out, weakened after 3 out (trainer's rep said, regarding the poor form shown, that gelding was unsuited by the undulating nature of Cheltenham and would prefer a return to a flatter track)

midfield, weakened after 2 out

held up in midfield, mistake 2nd, soon towards rear, not fluent 10th, soon dropped to last and struggling, pulled up before 12th

in touch with leaders, fell 6th
