- Stewards Report
Just inside 3 furlongs out, Virtual Hug (IRE), placed second, hung slightly left-handed causing the rider of Silk Purse (GB), unplaced, to take a precautionary check on the rail.
After viewing a recording of the incident, it was found that no riding offence was involved and it had not improved the placing of Virtual Hug (IRE).
The winner, Black Smoke (IRE), appeared to show improved form compared with its previous run at Wolverhampton on 23 February 2024, where the gelding finished eighth of ten runners, beaten 11 ½ lengths.
Mark Loughnane’s representative’s explanation that Black Smoke (IRE) benefited from being ridden with more restraint on this occasion, was noted.
Following the race, the Veterinary Officer reported that Stolen Encounter (GB), placed third, had been struck into on its right-hind.
