b g Great Palm (USA) - Miss Royello (Royal Fountain)
Held up in last, headway and still plenty to do 2 out, went third last, ridden and stayed on run-in, not reach leaders (An enquiry was held into the running and riding of the gelding, which was held up in last place on the first circuit before improving its position down the back straight on the final circuit whereupon it appeared to be considerately handled until jumping the final fence and staying on to finish third of thirteen runners, beaten by 4 1/2 lengths. The rider and the trainer were interviewed and shown recordings of the race and the Veterinary Officer reported that a post-race examination of the gelding failed to reveal any abnormalities. The rider stated that his instructions had been to drop in and get settled before then riding the race as he found it. he explained that he had found himself further back than intended on settling due to a fast early pace and the fact that the gelding had been slowly into stride after being slightly baulked at the start. He added that the gelding had travelled strongly throughout and jumped well on its chasing debut. He further stated that despite the gelding being inclined to lug left-handed on the final circuit, he had been able to creep into the race and make ground between weakening runners down the back straight. He had put himself in a competitive position after jumping the second last fence, however after making a strong challenge inside the final furlong, the gelding's run had flattened out late on and in his opinion had stayed on one-paced to obtain the best possible placing. The trainer stated that the gelding can be a buzzy type, who wears a hood and has a history of running freely. She confirmed the instructions and stated that she was satisfied the ride accorded with those instructions. Their explanations were noted)
