Knocked from either flank at the off - settled in the pack - asked for effort with 2f left - went wide entering the straight - still holding claims a furlong out - then dropped away rapidly in the final stages to finish sixth

Sluggish break from the gate - immediately behind the pace and struggling to get involved - shaped up a touch closer inside the final furlong but couldn't threaten the front end - finished well held in 7th
