1 J537  ROMANTIC SON  19/04/2026   621  ROMANTIC SON (J537) prior to declaring weighed-in the Stewards gave consideration as to whether the horse had been denied a fair start. After taking evidence from Trainer, Rider and Starter the Stewards established that prior to the start being effected rider was unseated from the saddle when the horse became fractious in the starting gates which resulted in rider being dislodged from the horse as the start was effected. As the Stewards were satisfied that rider was not positioned at the saddle as the start was effected they determined the horse had been denied a fair start and as such was declared a non-runner. Has since performed to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial - Race 621.
