Christian Williams 160 lbs 13/2 6 Always towards rear - never on terms (jockey said - regarding running and riding - gelding was having his first run over fences and his instructions were to drop him in and get him settled. he addedgelding is a bridle horse who finds little once asked for an effort and therefore needs to be played as late as possible. he explained that on this occasion - the gelding didn't travel as well as he normally can and that the field began to get away from him entering the back straight - a point he put down to the Good - Good to Firm ground and the drop in trip from 3m on his previous run at Ludlow - to 2m75yds. jockey further added he was reluctant to ask for a more serious effort in the back straight - as that he felt by doing so would result in gelding pulling up and finished by saying gelding jumped the final two fences in the manner of a tired horse - but that overall he was happy with the gelding's jumping on his first try at fences)(op 15/2 tchd 8/1)
