Held up towards the back - fenced awkwardly to the right at the opening obstacle - dropped away after three out and pulled up before the final fence
Settled in fifth early - slipped back to last and toiling into the home turn - blundered three out and pulled up before the next
Took a strong hold early - up with the pace and went in front - pushed along and lost advantage 5f out - slipped to the back soon after - well beaten from 3f out
