Towards rear - headway from under 2f out - ran on well inside final furlong - nearest finish (inquiry into running and riding; jockey said his instructions were to settle his mount as he was drawn wide - to creep into race and to do the best he could; he said his mount was off the bridle for much of the race before staying on in closing stages' when questioned why he chose to go right into traffic in the closing stages rather than go left for a clear run jockey said that his mount would benefit from running through horses and this had helped gelding to finish well; he was satisfied that if he had gone for daylight his mount would have lost interest; trainer's rep confirmed instructions given and expressed his satisfaction with ride; he confirmed that he owned gelding himself - had ridden it before and stated that gelding always does his best work in closing stages - which was noted; vet said gelding was post race normal)(op 22/1)
