- Stewards Report
Permission was given for Final Legacy (GB) and The Defiant (GB) to go early to post.
An enquiry was held into the running and riding of Nick Vedder (GB), ridden by Robbie Downey and trained by Robyn Brisland which was slowly into stride and outpaced in the early stages before appearing to stay on strongly under apparent tender handling inside the final 2 furlongs, to finish fourth, beaten by 2¾ lengths.
The rider and the representative of Robyn Brisland were interviewed and shown recordings of the race; the Veterinary Officer reported that two post-race examinations of the gelding during routine testing failed to reveal any abnormalities.
The rider stated that his instructions were to jump out, sit where the gelding was comfortable and not to use the whip on Nick Vedder (GB) as the aim was to restore his confidence upon this return from a leg injury after a 240 day absence.
Downey added that after being slowly away Nick Vedder (GB) was badly outpaced and never travelled, a fact he had reported at scales.
He further added that the gelding had responded positively to being held together on this occasion and in his opinion had obtained the best possible placing, although indicating that Nick Vedder (GB) would appreciate a step up in trip.
The trainer’s representative confirmed the instructions and stated that she was satisfied with the manner in which Nick Vedder (GB) had been handled, having been ridden to instructions on this occasion.
She added that the yard had low expectations for the gelding tonight, but highlighted the importance of Nick Vedder (GB) pulling up sound and returning injury free.
Downey was suspended for 14 days for schooling and conditioning the horse on the racecourse in that he had failed to ride his mount in such a way that he could be seen to ask for real and substantial effort to obtain the best possible placing.
Brisland was fined £3000 for using the racecourse as a training ground and Nick Vedder (GB) was suspended from running in any race for 40 days, from 48 hours after today’s race.
