The Stewards interviewed J.J. Slevin, rider of Marvel De Cerisy (FR), trained by Henry de Bromhead, where he appeared to continue cantering in the home straight after he had pulled out of the race having jumping the third last. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned, who stated that hie mount had stopped quickly and he felt that he should pull up. He accepted however, that he continued at the same pace as several horses that finished and in hindsight that he should have brought his mount to a halt.
