Steward Comment

Rider J Guthmann-Chester reported the horse travelled comfortably during the race however when placed under pressure was disappointing, adding that BONBORA coughed on a number of occasions on pulling up. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities. Stewards will follow up with trainer Greg Cornish if any condition comes to light in the coming days.
