In touch with leaders - not fluent 4 out - soon lost ground and towards rear - no impression from 2 out (inquiry into running and riding; jockey said his instructions were to begin in a handy position - give her sight of first hurdle and then drop her in; he said mare was keen into the first and having jumped the first two hurdles well she then relaxed and he was then able to drop her in as instructed adding that mare began to come back going away from stands up the hill and was not travelling as well as she had been prior to this - explaining that although he appeared to be sitting quietly on her at this point there was a loop in his reins demonstrating that she had begun to come off the bridle and he was only just able to maintain his position adding mare began to land flat after first two hurdles on back straight and he was having to squeeze her up on landing; she then put down on him into 3rd hurdle on back straight losing a number of lengths and dropping back through the field at which point he felt his race had gone; he asked for an effort going up hill before riding her in a manner intended to keep bridle up in her mouth for the remainder of the race and that riding her more forcefully was encouraging her to put down on him into the hurdles further adding mare ran green; trainer's rep confirmed instructions and that ride had accorded with those instructions - which was noted)(tchd 4/1) More
