Prominent - led 2nd - increased tempo after 3 out - pushed along 2 out - went clear approaching last - easily (trainer said - regarding the apparent improvement in form - that gelding was unable to handle what he described as unraceable ground at Navan and subsequently made a bad mistake at Thurles and failed to be competitive thereafter; he said that no reports were made on either day as required under the provisions of Rule 213; he added that today's front running tactics over an extended trip on a galloping track had helped to bring about the apparent improvement in form; when questioned on the market support for his charge - trainer reported that he had no knowledge of where the money came from and further expressed his surprise that his charge had won; having considered the matter the stewards referred the entire matter to the Referrals Committee for consideration under Rule 212(b))(op 5/1)
