Tony Carroll | 146 lbs | 16/1 | 0.3 | In rear and raced wide early - still plenty to do and waiting for room over 1f out - nudged along and some headway inside final furlong (enq held into the running and riding of the gelding - which jumped well from stall 11 and was restrained to settle at the rear of the field - before appearing to be tenderly handled inside the final 3f to finish ninth of thirteen runners - beaten by 5 1/4l. Vet examined the gelding on two occasions post-race and had nothing to report. Jockey stated that her instructions were to be positive - obtain a position around mid-division and hopefully the gelding would be staying on at the finish.

Jockey acknowledged that passing the 3f marker despite being poorly positioned - she had been slow to commit with her finishing effort - but indicated that off the home bend once she had chosen to mount her challenge down the centre of the track - she encountered traffic problems and was denied clear running both approaching and inside the final furlong - which had prevented her from being able to ride more vigorously. Trainer confirmed the instructions and conceded that the gelding had been further out of his ground than he had anticipated - before agreeing that the rider had been slow to ask the gelding to improve his position between 3f and 2f out - however he felt his rider had been a victim of circumstances in the home straight and did not have much luck in running. Taking into account the riders distinct lack of recent race riding opportunities and relative overall inexperience - she was suspended for 7 days for failing to take all reasonable and permissible measures to ensure the gelding was given full opportunity to obtain the best possible placing - in that she rode her mount with insufficient urgency and vigour throughout much of the final 3f - even allowing for the fact that the gelding had difficulty secu | |
