Jocheski was the subject of strong support and just failed to land the gamble on his handicap debut. Given a patient ride, he joined issue two out and took a narrow lead, only to be pipped almost on the line.
Jomelamin ran an encouraging race for her new yard, staying on from the rear for fourth. The tongue tie seemed to help but she might need a bit further.
Back To The Wind tried front-running tactics again but could not hold on from the home turn.
Formerly with Steve Gollings, Indian Pipe Dream was rather disappointing under top weight on his debut for the Pipe yard.
