Bumped on jumping. Approaching the 800m was crowded for room and had to be eased when tightened by BLUEANT which shifted in when not fully clear

Trainer advised that it would be their intention to ride the mare back in the field if circumstances permit. Settled near the rear of the field.

Began awkwardly and shifted out. Near the 1100m when racing keenly became awkwardly placed at the heels of DISARMED which laid out, then clipped heels and blundered

Steward Comment

Buffeted and became unbalanced shortly after the start. When asked to comment on the performance apprentice M Wishart explained that in her opinion the gelding doesn’t run out a strong 1200m and with the rise in weight for today’s event, that combination may have had a bearing on its finishing effort
