Took keen hold - prominent - pressed leader from 4th - not fluent 3 out - led 2 out - soon went clear - bad mistake and reduced lead last - ridden and kept on run-in - fatally injured (an enquiry was held into the riding of the winner from jumping the final fence up until rounding the bend towards the pull up area after which the gelding was immediately assessed by vets and subsequently euthanised on welfare grounds; jockey and the Director of Equine Regulation - Safety - and Welfare were both interviewed and shown recordings of the incident; jockey said gelding had made a bad mistake at the last fence after which it had taken a stride or two for the gelding to gather himself before - in his opinion - running on in a straight line to the winning line where he felt sound; jockey added that it was only until rounding the bend towards the pull up area that the gelding's action changed when gelding went from a canter to a trot after which he immediately dismounted from the gelding; after reviewing the footage - the Director of Equine - Safety - and Welfare explained that gelding's action was typical of a 3-mile chaser in the final stages of a race and supported the evidence of jockey; after hearing all of their evidence - the stewards noted jockey's explanation)(op 3/1)
