Held up in midfield on the wide side - dropped back at the 6th - regained ground before two out - driven but faded approaching the last
Settled in the pack - pushed along three out - lost ground on the leaders two out - stayed on past the last without threatening a place
Settled towards the back and wide - scrappy over 4th - made ground into last - couldn't land a blow on the front pair
Settled towards the back - asked for effort with much ground to recover before 2 out - improved into mid-division approaching the last - moved into 3rd late and stayed on to go under by a short margin
