CONRAD THE GREAT

Sat towards rear, failed to respond when asked, never a threat.

Away with them, raced better than midfield on the inside, saved ground on turn, showed limited response early in straight, weakened final 150M.

Taken back from a wide draw, raced 2 wide, 5 lengths or so back, same margin back turning in, no clear run early in straight, ran on evenly to the line.

Drawn wide, held up last, pushed along from top of home straight, stayed on down the outside, never dangerous.

Jumped well, raced 2 wide better than midfield, hard ridden from 450M, kept on well in straight to take a place, not quite able to challenge.

Moderately away from a wide draw, raced 2 wide better than midfield, peaked on turn, weakened early in straight, eased final furlong. (See Racing Incidents.)

Taken back to race 2 wide at rear, 6 lengths or so back turning in, made minor progress early in straight, peaked 150M, weakened gradually thereafter.

Jumped well, raced slightly better than midfield early, dropped towards rear in the middle stages, kept on evenly to the line.

Slightly slow out, sent forward to take the lead, led by 1/4L turning in, kept on well early in straight, peaked and headed 150M, ran on evenly, lost 2nd on line.

Crowded shortly after start, raced slightly behind midfield on the inside, a bit closer on turn, 2 wide after passing 500M, no clear run early in straight, kept on evenly thereafter.

Began only fairly, raced behind midfield on the middle track, closer in the middle stages, a length back at 400M, hard ridden approaching 300M, showed very good response, took the lead 250M, kept on strongly to the line and scored.

Away with them, raced towards rear on outer, very wide into straight, failed to make any progress in the run home.

Began well from gate 1, positioned 1-3/4L behind the leader on the inside, same position on turn, finished off well to take 2nd, just beaten by a narrow margin.
