b g Castle Du Berlais (FR) - Grey Valley (FR) (Al Namix)
Always behind (inquiry held into running and riding; jockey said his instructions were to ride a patient race on gelding as it was his first run over hurdles and he had taken time to learn when running in point to points in Ireland; he further added he jumped well if novicey on the whole and that he started to weaken down the back straight on a track and trip that may have been too sharp; having turned out of back straight he continued that his priority was to finish the race and he therefore rode his mount accordingly; he finished by stating that if he had ridden him more vigorously down back straight then he would have had to pull him up; trainer said he was satisfied with ride and that it accorded with instructions given; he further added that he had been unable to do a huge amount of work with gelding prior to race and that he wouldn't necessarily look to step him up in trip on his next start) (op 100/1)
