To me clear decision

Very odd decision.
And I backed the promoted horse. It's just the lack of consistency that makes me laugh. Another day and that is result stands. Just hard to know what is going on now. I preferred the old days, when you had to really, really, really deserve it to get one. Personally anyway. |

Winner crossed 2nd. Jockey didn't stop riding and 2nd lost neck at best. Winning margin 3/4 length.

Decent debate here, but not one that starts with the old outdated, and frankly stupid, port sodden stewards argument. I thought we'd moved on from that!

It was tongue in cheek but if stewards have proved themselves unable to get the simple decisions correct then I think a strike should be put against their name and 3 srrikes and you lose the job. Some decisions are close and you would not be surprised at either outcome. But this was clearcut and like studio commentators said winnner 100% guarantedd to be reinstated if they appeal.

An enquiry was held to consider the placings in this race after interference inside the final furlong when the winner, INTERGALACTICAT, ridden by Daniel Muscutt interfered with OPEN CHAMPION (IRE), placed second, ridden by Liam Keniry. The Stewards considered that the interference had improved INTERGALACTICAT’s placing as OPEN CHAMPION (IRE) was improving up the inside of INTERGALACTICAT when Muscutt’s mount continued to drift right-handed, resulting in Keniry’s mount to lose momentum, be taken off its intended line and switched to continue its run. Having been switched to continue its run, OPEN CHAMPION (IRE) stayed on strongly to be beaten a diminishing ¾’s of a length and revised the placings as follows: First - OPEN CHAMPION (IRE), Second- INTERGALACTICAT, Third- RICHARD P SMITH (IRE) and Fourth- SEA ME DANCE. Muscutt was suspended for 2 days for careless riding as he failed to take sufficient steps to prevent his mount from continuing to drift right-handed, causing Keniry to be taken off his intended line for several strides.

I just watched this race and I'm sure that Fanshawe's appeal will be successful.
