When the pace slackened past the 800m over-raced at heels and lost ground. Held up rounding the home turn, before shifting out abruptly in an attempt to obtain clear running at the 400m. Continued to be held up and placed on heels until approaching the 200m

Began awkwardly. Post race Vet examination revealed no abnormalities. Near the 1200m raced in restricted room lost ground and became un-balanced. Shifted wider passing the 800m to avoid the heels of CHANCE WITH WOLVES. Approaching the 700m laid in clipping the heels of CHANCE WITH WOLVES, blundered badly and lost significant ground.
