- Stewards Report
Permission was given for Sherpa Trail (USA) to wear a red hood to the start and be led to post.
Shortly after the start in a tightly packed field, the rider of Little Hercules (IRE), placed fifth, had to take a check off the heels of Violet's Lads (IRE), placed second, which in turn caused King Charles (USA), unplaced, to become short of room on the inside rail, but 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 Violet's Lads (IRE).
The winner, Mitigator (GB), appeared to show improved form compared with its previous run at Chelmsford City on 3 February 2022 where the gelding finished seventh of eight, beaten by 8¾ lengths.
Patrick Leech’s explanation that Mitigator (GB) had benefitted from the step up in trip to 1 mile 3 furlongs and the reapplication of blinkers on this occasion, was noted.
Mitigator (GB) was routine tested.
Following the race, Stefano Cherchi reported that Compass Point (GB), unplaced, ran too freely.
