Aidan was having a right go at Clerk of the course Paddy Graffin after she fell. The track with island sections of rails is begging for an accident

Without being too harsh on Sarah thought there was an element of blame with her,though she to be fair did stop hitting the horse but was then unable to control it(not easy i know), odd alright nearly the same scenario happened again with fav so there might be something to it.Bizarre race.

I think all tracks need to have a solid rail the last three furlongs of a race. We saw a young horse of Tom Taafe,s do something similar. Tracks that want to save ground often put rails at right angles but should invest in enough running rail to set up numerous tracks that they can take down as they want to move in preparing for the next days racing. Galway is a good example for the way festivals should set out the track .

Nothing there tonight,hurdle wings removed and only a straight rail to run against, to be fair to them there they didn't want a repeat.

Shared blame imo - track layout was flawed and she was weak in controlling her horse drifting

The track should be fully railed but it's a joke that AOB attended the enquiry. All relevant information could have been provided by the jockey. She showed once again that she can't hold one side of a horse bar they are point and shoot jobs.
