Sam Ewing, rider of I Am Fortunata, trained by Gordon Elliott, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that his mount ran out
The Raceday Stewards enquired into the running and riding of Meritorious (GB), ridden by Thomas Reilly, and trained by John C. McConnell. Evidence was heard from the rider and trainer concerned. Thomas Reilly, stated that he was familiar with this horse from his homework and was aware that he was not the greatest of jumpers. He said that he was instructed to line up in mid division, fill his mount with confidence and get him jumping.

Having taken his previous record into consideration, the Raceday Stewards suspended Thomas Reilly for ten racedays and ordered that he forfeit his riding fee. Furthermore, under Rule
