Performed below market expectation, Rider J Orman stated It was not his intention to lead in today’s event but after beginning well and from the awkward gate settled in the lead. He added that the gelding, in his opinion would be better suited ridden with cover.

Bumped heavily shortly after the start. Was eased down in the home straight, Apprentice J Lloyd stated that the gelding did not feel comfortable in its action. A post-race veterinary examination revealed signs of mild heat stress.
