Went in front briefly early - then took second spot - urged forward 4 out - slipped to rear before 3 out - lost touch and faded before 2 out - well held at the finish
Settled in the pack early - still holding a share close to the leaders 3 out before being nudged for effort and losing ground - dropped away approaching the last
Settled towards the back - still under no pressure when fell at the 5th
Handy early - stumbled 3rd fence - moved up into third and pressed the pace before three out - needed more approaching last - responded to close and get up close home
