Stewards questioned App C Dixon in regards to his ride on ICANWIN, particularly between the 600m and the 200m. App Dixon stated that after being slow into stride he urged his mount forward to obtain a forward position. App. Dixon further stated that from the 600m the gelding was a spent force and as such did not overly pressure his mount for the remainder of the event. Stewards noted App. Dixon’s comments however did advise App. Dixon that the lack of vigour shown on the gelding between the 600m and the 200m was below expectation and further advised App. Dixon of his requirement to ride his mount to the finish of the event. A post race Veterinary Inspection of ICANWIN failed to reveal any abnormalities.
