1 G126  CASA LEGEND  20/10/2024   111  CASA LEGEND (G126) when questioned, rider stated that the instructions were to ride his mount where comfortable but ensured that he obtained cover. He said his mount began only fairly and when caught to the outside of a runner he was of the opinion had he elected to go forward that would have resulted in his mount racing wide and without cover. He said as a consequence he elected to allow his mount to race towards the rear of the field where it was able to obtain cover. He added his decision to do so was also influenced by the fact that his mount had won on 15 June 2024 when ridden in a similar position towards the rear of the field. Trainer confirmed the instructions issued – Race 111.
