There should be a stewards inquiry into my failure to back Floating Market. I just sat there as if paralysed, saying to myself she's going to win. Ah well, another race soon.

Intimidation. Winner hung badly right into 2ptp at around 100m and again at 20m out. Might have been in trouble if a head or less distance.

An enquiry was held to consider the placings in this race after interference in the final furlong involving the winner, FLOATING MARKET, ridden by Isobelle Chalmers and DEVIL’S BRIGADE (IRE), placed second, ridden by Billy Loughnane. Being a 7lb claiming apprentice, Chalmers was offered the opportunity to be accompanied but declined. The Stewards considered that the interference had not improved FLOATING MARKET’s placing as although the filly had drifted right-handed towards DEVIL’S BRIGADE, moving it slightly off its intended line on the first occasion and causing the gelding to step away from FLOATING MARKET on the second occasion on the run to the line, DEVIL’S BRIGADE lost no momentum and was able to continue with a challenging run. The Stewards could not be satisfied that the ground lost by DEVIL’S BRIGADE via the shift right-handed was more than the winning distance of half a length with FLOATING MARKET appearing to hold DEVIL’S BRIGADE to the line. Chalmers was cautioned for careless riding as she allowed her mount to drift right-handed for a second time, having initially corrected it using her whip rather than placing her hands back on the reins.
