Permission was given for Turandot (IRE) to go early to post.

An enquiry was held to consider interference shortly after the start involving Puy Mary (GB), placed fifth, ridden by Jack Mitchell, Sharla (GB), unplaced, ridden by Saffie Osborne, and Baby Alya (IRE), placed fourth, ridden by Sean Levey.

Being a 7Ib Claiming Apprentice, Osborne was offered the opportunity to be accompanied in the enquiry but declined.

Mitchell was suspended for 2 days for careless riding as he manoeuvred right-handed when insufficiently clear of Sharla (GB) causing Osborne to have to take a check, and in turn resulted in Levey having to manoeuvre back to the rail where his horse, which was running very freely, stumbled.

An enquiry was held to consider the placings in this race after two incidents of interference from approaching the final furlong to just inside the final furlong marker involving the winner, Bellazada (IRE), ridden by Martin Dwyer, Babindi (GB), placed second, ridden by Pat Dobbs, and Turandot (IRE), placed eighth, ridden by David Nolan.

In the first incident, approaching the final furlong marker, Dwyer was cautioned for careless riding as he allowed his mount to drift right-handed without sufficient correction carrying Babindi (GB) slightly off its intended line.

In the second incident, just inside the final furlong marker, Dwyer was suspended for 4 days for careless riding as he allowed his horse to continue to drift right- handed without sufficient or timely correction causing both Dobbs and Nolan to have to take a significant check.

The Stewards considered that the interference had not improved Bellazada (IRE)’s placing as although Babindi (GB) lost both ground and momentum in the second incident, Bellazada (IRE) quickened away readily inside the final furlong and was eased in the last few yards, to win by ¾ length.
