it only jinked when it sensed the other leaning on it..but rambo had been nearest the hurdle from the top of the hill so jock on other should have came stand side imo.

"The interference was found to be accidental and caused by RAMBO T (IRE) jinking sharply left-handed approaching the wing of the hurdle"
If that's how they choose to interpret the rules Gregory is a lucky lucky boy, cause Quinlan was already going through the wing even if Rambo T hadn't jinked. Its not easy and maybe he would have run out anyway but you have two make sufficient effort to try and stop that happening. The stewards interpretation of this ensures it will keep happening until someone is killed one day. Utter madness!! |

there should be a rail in place. no rail is the cause of the incident. Because it wasn't there, it's difficult to tell from our angle if rambo moved from a line that would take it from nearer to the middle of the hurdle to one that took it to the far corner. It could be that the far side horse was "off the course" but had there been a rail there, that wouldn't have happened and it would have been clear if rambo was taking its ground.

That puts a different perspective on it. There was no room for the challenger to come up the inside at the hurdle unless the leader moved over. |

Rambo didn't hold his line...even the stewards said he 'jinked' left.
I would still say Gregory intentionally took him left. Had he kept him straight he would had hurdled the last a couple of sections nearer the middle, not right at the edge of the wing. |

That doesn't seem to be the case to me. rambo took the second last flight at the edge of the hurdle and if you look at https://www.attheraces.com/atrplayer-popout/VOD/1347613?showResult=yes , when the last hurdle comes into view, about 4.50 on the vid, it is clear that blue fin is way outside the line of the hurdle course and that is nothing to do with rambo or his rider. rambo might even have tried to run out.

*then rambo might even have tried to run out on the approach to the hurdle.

yes it did..only when the other was leaning on it approaching the last 3yds |

Not quite as bad but Quinlan, I'm sure, has done a lot of punters again.
