Settled in the pack - pushed along with little response approaching 2 out - stayed on through the closing stages - nabbed second close home without threatening the winner

Mr Johnathan Rees (5)
Olly Murphy
Settled at the back early - roused for effort before the 5th - continued at an even effort into the last two furlongs - finished with steady progress but never a threat
Mr Toby McCain-Mitchell
