We were probably a lucky winner with the horse falling. I wasn't even watching the leader jumping the last, I was watching the other two,. Jack said the leader was tying up very quickly going to the last. He said our horse probably needed more runners around him and a more competitive race. He was left in no mans land on his own.

The Stewards received a request from Peter Delmer, Authorised representative for W.P. Mullins, trainer of Low Sun (GB), to substitute the nominated rider D.J. Mullins, with P. Townend, after P.
