Took keen hold, in touch with leaders, headway and pressed leaders 3 out, outpaced when mistake and stumbled 2 out, edged left and kept on run-in (op 5/1 tchd 6/1)
Novicey jumping, always towards rear, ridden after 6th, soon tailed off (an inquiry was held into running and riding; jockey was interviewed and shown recordings of race and vet reported that a post-race examination of filly failed to reveal any abnormalities; jockey stated that instructions were to sit behind leaders and obtain cover as filly had raced keenly on previous run; he was then to ride his own race once filly had settled; he added that mare propped going into several hurdles jumping slowly and losing ground as a result throughout; he further added that in his opinion despite being tailed off, filly was not over tired and had popped the last hurdle nicely and had completed the race without showing any signs of fatigue; his explanation was noted) (op 22/1)
