followed up from last time with the blinkers again seemingly doing the trick, his rider worth of credit too, seeming alive to the lack of pace and not allowing his horse to be caught too far back; slowly into stride, raced off the pace, travelled well, headway halfway, close up entering straight, led when hung right over 1f out, kept on.
