  • Pos PU 17 Jan Ascot

    Held a forward position early - urged along and lost touch approaching two out - pulled up before that point

    Held up handy in leading group early - under pressure and still involved 2 out - dropped away quickly after - finished 4th well beaten

  • Pos 17 8 Nov Doncaster

    Held a midfield spot early - driven on the inside with 4f left but had nothing more to give - dropped right out and finished well behind

  • Pos 8 29 Mar Kempton (AW)

    Fought for control early - settled in the pack - urged forward with 3f left - held position briefly before fading well before the finish
