travelled strongly, in rear, going easily but still plenty to do 3f out, shaken up over 2f out, nudged along and headway from over 1f out, soon switched left towards far side, kept on well inside final furlong, too much to do, eyecatcher (jockey said, regarding the running and riding, his instructions were to settle mid-division, get the colt up in between horses and finish as close as he could. he explained that after being slowly into stride, he had to accept his position due to the horses drawn on either side jumping into his path, which resulted in him being further back than intended. he added that he considered the early pace to be slow and the colt travelled strongly throughout, before he was stuck down on the inner following horses which were not taking him forward into the race approaching the home turn. entering the home straight he had obtained clear running and placed the colt under pressure, before switching left handed approximately 1 1/2 furlongs out, to ensure he maintained a clear passage and the colt had ran on well under a hands and heels drive, to obtain the best possible placing in the circumstances in his opinion. vet reported the colt had lost his left-fore shoe and was slightly lame on that leg)
took keen hold, towards rear, going okay when still plenty to do 3f out, pushed along and some headway from over 2f out, soon ridden, stayed on but never dangerous
slowly into stride, ran green throughout, in rear, pushed along and on outer 3f out, drifted left from over 2f out, no chance with winner but ridden and stayed on from over 1f out

What these words mean
Underrated horse
We think this horse has a better chance than the bookmakers' odds suggest.
Our top pick
The horse with the highest TrackLab Score in the race.
TrackLab Score
Our model's estimate of a horse's chance of winning, as a number out of 100. The scores in a race add up to 100.
Ground
How the going was on the day, from Firm (hard and dry) to Heavy (very wet and muddy). On all-weather tracks it's Standard, Fast or Slow.
Race level (Class)
From Class 1 (elite) down to Class 7 (lowest).
Group, Grade and Listed
The top races. Group 1 on the Flat and Grade 1 over jumps are the highest level, then 2 and 3. Listed races sit just below.
Handicap
The handicapper gives better horses more weight to carry, so in theory they'd all finish together.
Maiden
A race for horses that haven't won yet.
Novice
A race for horses that are new to this type of race.
Chase, hurdle and bumper
Chase: jumps over fences. Hurdle: jumps over low hurdles. Bumper: a flat race for young jump horses.
Distance (m and f)
m is a mile and f a furlong, about 200 metres; 8 furlongs make a mile.
Each way
A bet that pays out if your horse wins or finishes in the top 3 (how far down it pays varies by race). It is really two bets.
Weight
How much the horse carries, including the jockey. 9st 5lb means nine stone five pounds.
Jockey claim
An apprentice jockey can claim a weight discount, so the horse carries a little less.
Headgear
Blinkers, visor, cheekpieces, tongue tie, hood and eyeshield change what the horse sees or feels.
