The Stewards enquired into possible interference in the closing stages involving Leap Dearg, ridden by Gavin Peter Brouder, placed second and Visioman (FR), ridden by D. Robinson, placed first, where it appeared Leap Derg was carried wide on the run to the line. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards made no alteration to the Judges placings. They were, however, of the opinion that D. Robinson was in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly and having considered his record, suspended him for 1 raceday. Mr. Patrick Coveney, Acting Steward, absented himself from this enquiry
