The jockey stated his instructions were to jump out and ride the gelding as he found him. He explained that he felt the early pace was very strong and that the gelding was always behind the bridle. He added that the gelding was showing a tendency to hang left, and that in his opinion this was owing to the gelding not handling the good ground, which he felt was riding quicker than the official description, and that he had stayed on at one pace past beaten horses to obtain the best possible placing) (op 28/1 tchd 25/1) | ||||
