He added that assuming everything went well at the start that she was to be ridden handy and wide to give her plenty of light. He further added that she had been in training a long while and was fit. He expressed that he thought that she might not handle today's ground. In his opinion he was most satisfied with her temperament but felt that the rider could have made an effort from the second last hurdle and possibly left his challenge too late. Jockey, confirmed the riding instructions and gave his evidence while reviewing the video recording of the race. He explained that his mount travelled very well throughout the race, jumped superbly and was always in his hands. He added that she travelled well into the straight but hit a flat spot after the second last hurdle before jumping the last well and running on up the hill for a strong hands and heels ride. He expressed annoyance with himself when reviewing the latter stages of the race) (tchd 80/1)
