took keen hold, held up in rear, drifted right and not clear run over 1f out, switched left and no impression inside final furlong (jockey said his instructions were to take his time and get gelding to settle, having ran too freely over 5f on his last run and get the gelding to finish his race off, jockey explained that gelding again ran keenly despite his best efforts to switch the gelding off in the early stages, he considered the pace to have been strong initially but it steadied up leaving the back straight, whereupon he found himself following and not being taken forward into the race, he further explained that once others improved around his outside and another arrived down his inner he was left with limited option but to continue following which caused him to lose ground and be on the back foot with a view to mounting his challenge, thereafter once availing himself of clear running inside 1 1/2f out, he gave the gelding a hands and heels ride to the line and c stayed on fairly from that point, albeit from an unpromising position, jockey added that he felt gelding would come on for the run but would be recommending the gelding should remain racing over 5-6f but would be better suited by a strong pace and perhaps a more galloping track, which was noted)

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.
