5th
Took keen hold - raced wide early - prominent - lost position 4 out - soon dropped to rear - ridden briefly after 3 out - nudged along and no impression from 2 out - never near to challenge (stewards inquired nto running and riding; the trainer was interviewed on loudspeaker via telephone and the vet reported that a post-race examination revealed that the gelding had an abrasion on its right fore but was sound and showed no other abnormalities; rider stated his instructions were to ride the gelding in a handier position than in previous races with a view to him finishing his race off as it has been keen at home; he added that from the third last hurdle he was holding the gelding together due to respiratory issues in the past - hence running in a tongue-strap - and despite this he felt he had asked for sufficient effort; he further stated that the gelding may not have handled the undulating track on this occasion and would be recommending a step-up in trip; trainer confirmed the instructions and stated that the only footage he had seen of the race was the televised footage on his phone and he did not have access to all the views seen by the stewards - however he was satisfied that the gelding appeared to finish its race off better than previously; stewards found the rider had intentionally failed to ask for sufficient effort from the third last hurdle when the gelding appeared to have running left in him and made up significant ground from the back of the field - appearing to run on through horses down the home straight; the matter was referred to the Head Office of the BHA and Get Supreme was suspended from running in any race for 40 days)(op 20/1 tchd 18/1 and tchd 40/1)
