[quadrilla]

An enquiry was held to consider interference shortly after jumping the third-last hurdle involving CHART TOPPER (FR), which was pulled up, ridden by Mr P. W. Mullins; QUANTUM QUEST (IRE), unplaced, ridden by Darragh O’Keeffe and CHANCE ANOTHER ONE (IRE), unplaced, ridden by Donagh Meyler. The interference was found to be accidental as CHANCE ANOTHER ONE (IRE) made a bad mistake jumping the third-last hurdle, causing the gelding to shift right-handed which resulted in CHART TOPPER (FR) being pushed onto the heels of QUANTUM QUEST (IRE) and clipping heels.

Paddy Power e/w 6 places.

Backing two runners is the relentless pursuit of value. Backing each way is a shortcut to the poor house. Only 7% make a long term profit.
