SUMMARY

Rail out for entire 6f.
DB allowed to set an average pace unpestered and little change in positions after halfway. Race developed into an ok test of ability because jockey on DB had increased the pace by 2.5F out on the steep uphill section to the straight and kicked off the full efforts before the usual 2F out point. This produced enough pressure to spread the field out and give PC enough time to gather himself and gain ground slowly on DB (who responded once joined). That pair going forward at finish and away from the others and can improve their ratings further.
