After the race, H Bowman reported that the pre-race instructions were to ride his mount in a forward position, however, after his mount jumped awkwardly and from the wide barrier he was left with no option but to try and gain some cover further back in the field. SUPER CHARIZZARD (J184): A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
