led, hit 6th, driven when pressed 2 out, headed approaching last, rallying and every chance when carried right throughout run in, just failed (awarded race)
tracked leaders, every chance last, led soon after, hung right when strongly challenged throughout run in, all out, held on gamely (demoted to 3rd)
tracked leaders, not fluent 4th and 5th, every chance 2 out, led before last, headed soon after, rallying and every chance when short of room throughout run in, no extra close home (promoted to 2nd)
Bumper winner La Chanteuse has yet to get her act together over hurdles while Ulverston failed to build on an earlier second at Doncaster when well beaten at the same track and has 8lb to find with THE FERRY MASTER on these terms. The latter had little chance in Grade 2 company at Haydock last time but had gone close in maiden company on a couple of occasions before that and may well improve with a tongue-tie fitted today.
