4.8 lengths
taken down early, held up in rear, nudged along over 1f out, carried left 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, never near to challenge (enq held into the running and riding of the gelding which was restrained at the start from his wide draw in stall 10 and raced towards the rear throughout until being asked for an effort approximately 2 1/2f out, from which point her stayed on evenly under hands and heels riding until being disappointed for clear running passing the 1f marker and thereafter was considerately ridden to finish seventh of ten, beaten 4 3/4l. Jockey stated his instructions were to take his time, ensure the gelding relaxed and found a nice racing rhythm, having had a history of being keen in the past and bleeding on his last start, before warming into the race. Jockey explained that the pace was strong, which enabled him to drop the gelding out early although the gelding still raced freely into the first bend before eventually settling down the back straight. Jockey added that he was tracking the winner leaving the back straight when that runner had suffered interference and got carried very wide, however although not directly affected his mount had wanted to follow it a little. Jockey indicated he first placed the gelding under pressure approaching 2f out and did not feel there was much response to his urgings, with the gelding taking a while to pick up and find his stride before being denied a clear run between rivals, which wandered left-handed near the 1f marker, a fact he had reported at scales. Jockey further added that inside the final furlong he was forced to switch back to the inner and was conscious of a rival veering sharply right ahead of him and became concerned about running onto heels and for this reason had stopped riding for a number of strides as a precaution)

Scores in a race add up to 100.How scores workModel estimates, not guaranteed. Past performance is no guide.
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.
