Iceo never really gave himself a chance of getting home there. I'm not sure Nicholls will be too bothered. Midway through the race I actually wondered if Pied Piper was trying but I suspect Russell realised they were going too hard up front (I'll compere the running with the previous CD handicap some time later) and maybe the race ended up falling into his lap but he was visually impressive.
