Slattery stated that immediately after the winning post Pirate Jenny appeared to look for the parade ring and moved slightly to the right causing his mount to clip her heel and stumble. C.T. Keane stated that his mount, which was fitted with ear plugs, had been under a strong left hand drive when she caught him unaware and edged momentarily toward the parade ring before straightening up.
