| b g Walk In The Park (IRE) - Tip Tap Toe (IRE) (Getaway) | ||||||||||
| Took keen hold, held up in rear, tenderly handled and weakened 2 out (inquiry into running and riding; jockey said that gelding is a very keen going sort who is difficult to ride at home and that on his previous two runs he had failed to see out races and that his focus here was on getting gelding settled and jumping, with the aim of finishing well; he added that gelding went keenly to post and in early stages of race, before beginning to drop the bridle after having turned into back straight and that he became slightly unbalanced coming down into dip towards end of back straight; having turned into home straight, jockey said that he began to ask for an effort after 3rd last, and that gelding ran on to finish in what was in his opinion the best possible placing; trainer confirmed both instructions and focus on getting gelding to finish the race strongly; stewards stated jockey's riding from after 3rd last and his explanation for it were not corroborated by the video evidence and instead appeared to run counter to both trainer and jockeys explanation of focusing on getting gelding to finish strongly; vet had nothing to report; gelding was suspended from running in any race for 40 days) (op 22/1) | ||||||||||
