1st
Towards rear - headway from 4 out - jumped left and bumped rival 3 out - challenging 2 out - pushed along disputing lead last - ridden clear final 110yds (trainer said - regarding the apparent improvement in form - that last time was his first run in a handicap and he was flat out the whole way and today's step up in trip may have helped to contribute to the improvement)
