1 | 5 | HAMERON (H265) | L Ferraris | -- | Ridden from the one draw to be just off the pace on rail, drifted further back to 4th when tempo quickened over 900 metres out, regained 3rd on the bend 500 metres out, fought on dourly to hit the front 150 metres, just held on. |
2 | 2 | ZONE D (D415) | A Badel | TT | Slowly away settling well back on rail, saved ground turning for home, ran on stoutly under pressure to just fail to get up on line. |
