Sat second early well ahead of the remainder - closed on the leader from the fifth - blundered and dropped to last spot - found finishing effort late to secure runner-up spot without threatening the winner
Prominent out wide - moved up to 2nd after 3 out - pressed for the lead on the wide outside before 2 out - driven between the final two and hit the front at the last - pulled and forged ahead on the run-in to win
Held a midfield spot wide - driven forward approaching 3 out - lost ground to leaders 2 out - hit last then rallied to finish fifth
