The start didn’t suit him as he had to sort of gun him, as he missed it a little bit when they did eventually go. Then he sort of launched at the first few,. For his first run in a handicap, we decided to make the running with him. He had a lovely weight and it worked. He stayed at it when they came at him. I'm hoping in the stewards' enquiry it won’t be changed, as he won two-and-a-half lengths in the end. He’s a nice young horse and it was a great pot to get. You’d be aiming for Christmas, he definitely won’t go anywhere until then. He loved that ground, I think he’d handle it a bit easier and he’ll want to. I was happy with that. Paul Nolan, trainer

The Raceday Stewards enquired into possible interference on the run to the second last involving Balko D'ange (FR), ridden by B. Hayes, placed second, and Le Moulin Rouge (FR), ridden by E. Staples, placed first, where it appeared Balko D'ange got tight for room after Le Moulin Rouge manoeuvred left. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. B. Hayes said he was coming to join the leader and had plenty room before Le Moulin Rouge came left taking his ground. E. Staples said he had left room on his left as his horse goes left at his hurdles and he had not anticipated a horse coming on his inner. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards made no alteration to the Judge’s placings. They were, however, of the opinion that E. Staples was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly and having considered his clean record in this regard, they suspended him for three racedays

The Raceday Stewards requested a report from Paul Nolan, trainer, as to the apparent improvement in form of Le Moulin Rouge (FR), placed first, as compared with its most recent run in Chepstow on the 9th of October.

Having considered the report the Raceday Stewards noted its contents
