He explained that the gelding made a bad mistake at the first fence and jumped deliberately thereafter. He added that when he made an attempt to make ground in the back straight, the gelding made further mistakes and he felt his best chance of winning the race after that was to keep the gelding balanced and make his challenge after the final fence. However, the gelding found very little when asked for an effort after the final fence. His explanation was noted) (op 7/2)
