In touch with leaders - outpaced and dropped to rear 2f out - weakened and lost touch inside final furlong (trainer's rep said - regarding the poor form shown - that gelding was unsuited by the going - which was officially described as good to soft - but in his opinion was riding tacky - and would appreciate a quicker surface; vet had nothing to report)(tchd 9/2)
