He added that the gelding raced a bit keenly in the early stages and made several jumping errors - particularly at the second last hurdle. He further added that having asked the gelding to close up on the leaders turning for home he felt that there was very little response and he therefore felt it prudent to keep a hold of the gelding - which appeared to him to be tiring and the gelding had subsequently been slowly away from the final hurdle. Trainer's rep confirmed the instructions and stated that she was satisfied the ride accorded with those instructions.)
