The Stewards enquired into possible interference on the approach to the last hurdle involving Ange D'Or Javilex (FR), ridden by L.P. Dempsey, placed first and Nimdani, ridden by S.D. Bohan, placed second, where it appeared Nimdani met with interference and had to check. 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 and took no further action.
