He continued that he jumped well and that he was happy to get cover in the early stages and intended to take his time - he added that he has ridden the gelding before and when he felt the pace slow down in the back straight - he was aware that this would not be suited to him - he explained that the gelding needs to be held together as he tires quickly and is best suited by a strong pace and only being asked for one strong run - he continued that in the final half furlong he was passing tired horses making his finishing efforts look exaggerated - his explanation was noted)(op 12/1)
