MILLWOOD GODDESS - Stewards questioned driver J Dunn regarding the tactics he adopted in the early stages when HI HOPES was able to shift inwards ahead of his runner. Mr Dunn advised that after initially urging his horse forward with the whip the mare had paced roughly and had hung outwards resulting in him having to steady his horse. After considering Mr Dunn's explanation which was supported by the video replays, Stewards took the matter no further.
