- Stewards Report
Permission was given for Kanukankan (IRE) to go early to post and be mounted on the course.
Prior to this race, Alexandra Dunn was asked to explain why she was running Blitz Spirit (IRE) here at Stratford-Upon-Avon over 2 miles, after her representative reported that the filly was unsuited by the 2 mile trip at Worcester on 21 July 2022 and would have preferred further.
The trainer’s explanation that Blitz Spirit (IRE)’s best run to date had been over 7 furlongs on the Flat in France and she was of the opinion that the 2 mile trip should suit and was therefore happy to try the filly over the trip again, was noted.
Jumping the first hurdle, Harlem Soul (GB), veered sharply left-handed, causing Nick Scholfield to be unseated and Blitz Spirit (IRE), placed third, and Calculus (IRE), placed fourth, to be hampered, but after viewing a recording of the incident it was found that no riding offence was involved.
It was further noted that jumping the second hurdle, the loose-running Harlem Soul (GB) bumped Kanukankan (IRE), placed second, resulting in that gelding becoming lit up and racing freely for the remainder of the back straight.
