Settled towards back of the main bunch - urged on and made no inroads 2 out - plodded on at same speed up the straight to finish 8th
Sat close to the pace early - 6th at halfway then up to 4th with three left - moved through into contention entering the straight before sharing command after two out - edged clear under pressure on the run-in - stayed on strongly to score
Up with the front group - 5th at halfway - dropped back a touch after 3 out before recovering to 4th at 2 out - closed on the long-time front-runner approaching the last and marginally interfered with - ground on along the run-in - went down by a head
Held up at the back - improved into midfield two out then driven into 6th at the last after an untidy jump - stayed on strongly to snatch 3rd near the line
