- Lingfield Park, 11 February 2012
The Stewards held an enquiry into possible interference inside the final furlong. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race they found that the winner, CUT ACROSS (IRE), ridden by Steve Drowne, had interfered with SAINT BONIFACE, placed fourth, ridden by Fergus Sweeney. The Stewards found Drowne in breach of Rule (B)54.1 and guilty of careless riding in that he allowed his horse to drift left. They suspended him for two days as follows: Saturday 25 and Monday 27 February.
The record of vaccinations in the passport of SIX WIVES, trained by Scott Dixon, did not comply with the Rules of Racing. The Stewards found the trainer in breach of Rule (E)18 and, noting that the last examination had also identified an error, fined him £650.
The Stewards wished to enquire into possible interference involving the winner, TAAJUB (IRE), ridden by Ian Mongan, and BILLY RED, unplaced, ridden by Fergus Sweeney, at approximately the furlong marker. They were unable to do so as Sweeney had left the racecourse. They therefore adjourned the enquiry until Wednesday, 15 February at Lingfield.
The Stewards held an enquiry into the use of the whip by Kieren Fallon, the rider of PINCANSORT, placed second, inside the final furlong. Having heard his evidence and viewed recordings of the race, they accepted his explanation and found him not in breach of Schedule (B)6 Part 2.
The Stewards held an enquiry following a report from the Starter that CELTIC CHARLIE (FR), trained by Pat Phelan, was the subject of a third criteria failure. The trainer’s attention was drawn to the restriction incurred under Rule (B)44 and informed that the gelding could not run until the day after passing a stalls test. This being the second occasion within the previous 12 months that CELTIC CHARLIE (FR) had been reported, the Stewards informed the trainer that if the gelding were reported for a third time within the same period, CELTIC CHARLIE (FR) would be prevented from having a stalls test for 6 months.
The Stewards held an enquiry following a report from the Starter that D E EGAN, the rider of TEVEZ, had entered the wrong stall. Having heard his evidence and viewed recordings of the start they found him in breach of Rule (D)44.2 and cautioned him as to his future conduct in races.
The Stewards held an enquiry into possible interference inside the final furlong.

- Kempton Park, 11 February 2012
The Stewards held an enquiry into the running and riding of FROCK (IRE), ridden by Jamie Mackay and trained by Sylvester Kirk, which finished fifth, beaten 5 ½ lengths. They interviewed the rider and Andy Lucas, representing the trainer. They also received a report from the Veterinary Officer, who confirmed that the filly was normal post-race. The rider stated that his instructions were to drop FROCK (IRE) in, as she has been struggling to finish in her previous races, and to finish as close as possible. He added that FROCK (IRE) ran past beaten horses in the closing stages. The representative confirmed the instructions and stated that he was satisfied with the ride his jockey had given the filly. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race the Stewards noted their explanations.
The Stewards held an enquiry into possible interference half-way down the back straight between SHALAMBAR (IRE), placed fourth, ridden by Luke Morris, and NOT TIL MONDAY (IRE), unplaced, ridden by Richard Hughes. Having heard their evidence and viewed recordings of the race they were satisfied that no interference had taken place.
The Stewards noted that CHJIMES (IRE) had interfered with SHERJAWY (IRE) and then with RAPID WATER, all unplaced, inside the final furlong but after viewing a recording of the race they were satisfied that it did not involve a riding offence.

The Stewards considered the apparent improvement in form of the winner, WEST BRIT (IRE), ridden by Paddy Brennan and trained by Charlie Longsdon, compared with its previous run at Plumpton on 19 December 2011 where the gelding was pulled up. They noted the trainer’s explanation that WEST BRIT (IRE) had benefited from having had a wind operation and the fitting of a tongue strap today. They ordered WEST BRIT (IRE) to be routine tested.
