★ Crystal Spring recent form: analyst notes

  • Pos 6 17 Dec Ludlow

    Settled off the front rank - roused and edged into contention approaching 3 out - stayed on without gaining further ground up the run-in - finished sixth

  • Pos 2 7 Nov Exeter

    Tracked front group early - travelling strongly from 4 out - hit the front approaching 3 out - pressed and lost advantage 2 out - stayed on same effort to finish second

  • Pos 1 7 Oct Huntingdon

    Set the pace from the off - pushed along after two out - kept finding under pressure to the line

  • Pos 3 25 May Uttoxeter

    Handy behind the front-runner in the pack - asked for effort before 3 out and lost ground briefly - into third at 2 out - stayed on but unable to match the front two up the straight
