2 1 BOND (BT065) W Woods SR Jumped awkwardly and unbalanced rider, dropped to rear on fence from wide draw. Much to do entering straight, ran on well through field on inner but no threat to the winner.
3 3 FAT CHOY TREASURE (BV156) G Mosse -- Ridden to be 3-wide 3Ls off pace. Kept on very much same pace in the straight.
