185D Slaney Beginners S'chaseThe Stewards requested a report from Gavin Cromwell, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of Peaches And Cream, placed first, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that this horse possibly appreciated the ease in today's going, he had recently come into form at home and appreciated being ridden more prominently today. Having considered the evidence the Stewards noted the explanation offered.
185F Barrow H'cap S'chaseThe Stewards requested a report from P.J. Rothwell, trainer as to the apparent improvement in form of The Broom Squire, placed first, as compared with its recent form. The trainer reported that this gelding is not the most reliable. He made mistakes at Clonmel back in January.
