An enquiry was held to consider why David Barron was running Olivia R here at Carlisle on going described as Good to Firm having declared the filly a non-runner at Haydock on 5 July 2019 on ground with the same official description.

The trainer stated that in his opinion the ground in the home straight at Haydock was riding quicker than the official description, but he was happy for the filly to take her chance at Carlisle today on the uphill finish.

Permission was given for Musical Sky (GB) to go to post early.

Fard (GB) trained by Roger Fell finished fourth at Catterick the previous day.

The Veterinary Officer reported that a pre-race examination of the gelding deemed it fit to race.

2 furlongs out, Fard (GB), placed second, edged right as Musical Sky (GB), placed fifth, hung left causing God Of Dreams (GB), placed sixth, to be briefly short of room.

However, after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved and that it had not improved the placing of Musical Sky (GB).

1 furlong out, Blindingly (GER), placed third, shifted right for one hit carrying Ifton (GB), which dead- heated for seventh, slightly off its intended line.

However, after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved and that it had not improved the placing of Blindingly (GER).

Following the race, James Sullivan reported that Ifton (GB), which dead-heated for seventh place, hung left.

Jamie Gormley reported that God Of Dreams (GB), placed sixth, was denied a clear run 2 furlongs out.
