b g Big Bad Bob (IRE) - Silly Goose (IRE) (Sadler's Wells)
Held up in rear, steady headway from 3rd, midfield 3 out, disputing fourth 2 out, soon shaken up and went third, kept on well, never near to challenge (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that she was instructed to get her mount settled, get him in his comfort zone, follow her own initiative from there, do her best and ensure that she got home in tact. She described her ride from the start and firstly advised that she was further back passing the stands having been pushed out by another horse. As the race progressed she added that her mount settled in a race run at a good gallop and moved up slowly before the home turn when being squeezed. She described her mount as making a mistake at the second last but picked up when pressure was applied and ran on. In her own opinion, she felt that any pressure applied before the home turn would not have been rewarded with third; trainer described the rider as being very inexperienced and in his opinion she should have taken a closer position before the home turn) (op 20/1)
