OCEAN OF STORMS (IRE) (T Naughton) and KRISKOVA (USA) (T O'Shea) were slow to begin. RUMPOLD (GB) (S Chin) was inclined to lay inwards in the final 400 m and near the 200 m brushed EARLY ASSAULT (AUS) (W Supple) which had to be steadied inwards off the heels of NAIAD (GB) (R Ffrench). At the 1000 RUMPOLD (GB) cornered badly and shifted outwards to avoid the heels of LUNCH TIME (GB) (D Mernagh). Jockey R Ffrench (NAIAD [GB]) was cautioned for using his whip with his arm extended above shoulder height. General Report 26 December 2004, Abu Dhabi Equestrian Club. Race 2. Stewards enquired into the reason for Jockey R Moore falling from MAYMOUNE (FR) at about the 600m. It was established that MAYMOUNE (FR) which was travelling well, was following ELNAAWI (FR) (T O'Shea) and Jockey R Moore was of the opinion that he has simply struck that horse's heels with MAYMOUNE (FR) dipping, thereby dislodging him. In considering the evidence the Stewards took no further action.
