- Stewards Report
On the approach to the first hurdle, My Mate Polly (GB) veered badly, unseating the rider and badly hampering Flight Of Freedom (IRE), unplaced, which in turn inconvenienced Cawthorne Banker (IRE), placed second, Saddlers Quest (GB), unplaced and Gerard Mentor (FR), placed fourth, but after viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved.
The winner, Collingham (GER), appeared to show improved form compared with its previous run at Musselburgh on 5 April 2024 where the gelding finished twelfth of thirteen, beaten 56 ½ lengths on ground officially described as Soft, Heavy in places.
Donald McCain’s explanation that Collingham (GER) benefitted from the quicker surface, officially described as Good, Good to Firm in places was noted.
Collingham (GER) was routine tested.
Following the race, Ben Jones reported that Saddlers Quest (GB), unplaced, was badly hampered by a faller at the third-last hurdle; Tom Bellamy reported that Flight Of Freedom (IRE), unplaced, was badly hampered by the faller at the third-last hurdle.
