2 K097  AURORA PATCH  14/10/2026   107  AURORA PATCH (K097) when questioned rider reported that his instructions were to go forward from a wide barrier. He said after being caught wide in the early stages to the outside of a runner he had anticipated that runner to go forward and cross another runner in the Back Straight and for that reason he remained racing to the outside of the former runner. He said when that runner did not continue forward as he had expected that resulted in his mount being obliged to race wide and without cover for the majority of the event - Race 107.
