THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: a) All horses selected for TCO2 were within the required levels, and no retests were recorded. b) This Race was run in rain. c) Shortly after the start, PARACHUTE ADAMS (M Yeni) was bumped outwards by STAGE ONE (M Michel), which jumped outwards leaving the stalls. d) STAGE ONE (M Michel) over-raced in the early and middle stages and, as a consequence, raced wide around the turn and into the straight.
