It's a nice way to start - to get something on the board,. Nicky Henderson, trainer

R. Walsh, rider of Lucky Bridle, trained by W.P. Mullins, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount ran too free. The Stewards requested a report from W.P. Mullins, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of City Slicker, placed second, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that this horse was tried in a hood last twice which didn't seem to work and perhaps removing it today brought about an improvement. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the contents of the report. The Turf Club Veterinary Officer examined Lucky Bridle, trained by W.P. Mullins, at the request of the Stewards and reported the animal to be blowing hard post race. T.E. Doran, rider of Star Of Aragon, trained by J.A. Nash, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount made a bad mistake at a hurdle and unseated on the flat shortly after.
