went left start, tracked clear leader, took closer order over 1f out, led inside final furlong, hung right under pressure closing stages, stayed on gamely
steadied and hampered start, outpaced, always in rear

A couple of these stand out on form. Fast Dancer was placed three times over 6f last year and has a bit to spare with RAHMAH on today's terms as he attempts the minimum trip for the first time. But the latter was only beaten a head over course and distance on Boxing Day and may well have too much pace for these on his return. Torridonian has a stack to find at the weights and the remainder have yet to record any form worthy of a mention.
