The Stewards held an enquiry under Rule (B)11.6 into possible interference on the run in. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race they found that the winner, TUSCAN GOLD, ridden by Tom Cannon, had interfered with JACKS GREY, placed second, ridden by Paddy Brennan, and that the interference had not improved TUSCAN GOLD’s placing. They ordered the placings to remain unaltered. The Stewards found Cannon in breach of Rule (B)54.1 and guilty of careless riding in that he manoeuvred towards the rail when not sufficiently clear. They suspended him for 6 days as follows: Tuesday 14, Wednesday 15, Thursday 16, Friday 17, Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 May 2013.
