1st
Prominent until soon settled behind leaders - 6th after 2f - pushed along into 4th over 2f out and soon switched left - improved to lead into straight and ridden clear inside final furlong - kept on well towards finish where reduced lead (trainer said - regarding apparent improvement in form - gelding had been poorly drawn at Naas where most of the horses on that side couldn't get into the race that day. At Gowran last time he was cut off by horses dropping back in the straight. gelding seemed to relish Galway's uphill finish and the uphill finish at Sligo as they're similar to his own gallop at home. trainer further added he also felt the horse appreciated the softer ground today)(op 15/2)
