Green Finger, dropping back in trip, and wearing cheekpieces for the first time, was well backed, but he was being pushed along from three out, and though he responded to take second, was flattered by finishing so close to the winner.
Apadi needs an easier track and wasn't disgraced, and will be of interest when he goes back to Cartmel.
