b m Malinas (GER) - Harry's Bride (Sir Harry Lewis)
Held up in rear, nudged along 2 out, reminders and headway approaching last, kept on run-in, not reach leaders (An enquiry was held into the running and riding of the mare, which was held up in rear throughout until being asked for an effort in the back straight on the final circuit before then staying on under apparent tender handling down the home straight. The rider and the trainer were interviewed and shown recordings of the race and the vet reported that a post-race examination of the mare found her to be displaying a prolonged recovery rate. The rider stated that his instructions had been to drop in, get the mare to settle as she is an anxious type and ensure she was finishing her race off. The jockey said that his mount was interfered with jumping the first hurdle and lost ground, but moreover had been unsuited by the muddling tempo of the race which developed into a sprint from halfway down the back straight on the final circuit. He added that the mare had initially been outpaced when the tempo increased before staying on one-paced through to the line. In his opinion he thought the mare would benefit from a more truly run race, where there is more emphasis on stamina, in addition to a possible step up in trip or a more galloping track. The trainer confirmed the instructions and that the ride accorded with them, before adding that he was satisfied with the manner in which the mare had been ridden. Murphy also stated that he concurred with England's summary of the race and would take those factors into account when considering where the mare has her next start. Their explanations were noted) (op 12/1 tchd 9/1)
