ch g Lord Of Appeal - Deep Salmon (IRE) (Over The River)
Held up towards rear, some headway into moderate 6th before straight, no impression in 5th when mistake 2 out, slow last, stayed on well run-in without ever threatening principals, nearest finish (jockey said, regarding running and riding, that in his opinion, this was the gelding's best run on the heavy ground and rode it mindful that it would not handle the extreme conditions, while he wanted to get it home safely, he accepted that he lay a little too far out of his ground but felt the pacesetters would tire, however they stayed on as did the gelding, he felt it questionable that had he taken a closer position it would have finished closer as it had not run for two years, but thought the ride an error of judgement.)
