Thereafter, in the concluding stages, Jockey A Arries was unable to ride BECKY SHARP to the finish when awkwardly placed on the outside of the heels of TRUE HORIZON (A Andrews). d) Leaving the 200m JET GREEN (M Mjoka) was directed outwards to secure clear running. e) Jockey D Ashby reported that BLACK HOLE SUN did not stride out freely in running.
