b f Ardad (IRE) - Al Gharrafa (Dutch Art)
Took keen hold, raced wide, prominent, niggled along and lost position gradually from 2f out (inquiry was held into ride; rider was interviewed and shown recordings of race; jockey said his instructions were to drop filly in to get her relaxed and to find her way through the race, with the hope that filly would keep finding all the way to line; he added that she jumped better from stalls than anticipated causing filly to be left on the outside without cover, which resulted in her racing very freely for the first 1 1/2f; as a result he felt that filly had nothing left in final 2f, having become very tired due to over racing early on and, although close to the leaders, there was nothing more that he could do to obtain a better position and he felt that resorting to whip would not have been beneficial; jockey also said that having talked to trainer after race, he believed that filly could potentially be suited to a drop back in trip to 5f; vet said that a post race examination failed to reveal any abnormalities; stewards noted the rider's explanation) (op 80/1)
