See also » Roost-rewards-support-on-handicap-debut He wanted better ground and he saves a bit for himself so we said we'd try cheek-pieces. This grade is much more his cup of tea,. It's great for (owner) Derek Kierans as he's a great supporter.
Thomas Gibney, trainer
B.T.O'Connell, rider of Crocodile Dundee trained by Thomas Cooper, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount never travelled and was pulled up. M.P. Walsh, rider of William Du Berlais (FR) trained by E. Bolger, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount never travelled and was pulled up. The Stewards requested a report from Thomas Gibney, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of Robin De Roost, placed first, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that his charge struggled throughout the winter on soft ground in better quality races. He added that his yard has now hit form and today's good ground helped his charge return to form. He also stated that the application of cheekpieces may have contributed to the improved form. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the explanation offered.
