AL MUKHTAR STAR (USA) - (A de Vries): Shifted outwards shortly after the start and bumped another runner. FIRST VIEW (IRE) - (C Soumillon): When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of the colt, the rider explained that FIRST VIEW (IRE) did not respond to his riding throughout the race and at no stage felt comfortable.

MATTERHORN (IRE) - (R Ffrench): Slow into stride. SECRET AMBITION (GB) - (T O'Shea): Commenced awkwardly, bumped another runner and lost ground. Near the 1400 metres had to be checked when tightened for room. FIGHT ON (USA) - (P Cosgrave): Saddle had to be re-adjusted on arrival at the barrier. Bumped on jumping. Raced ungenerously in the early stages and near the 1400 metres raced in restricted room. CAPEZZANO (USA) - (M Barzalona): Bumped on jumping MUNTAZAH (GB) - (J Crowley): Acting on a confirmed telephone call from Trainer Mr D Watson that the gelding was lame in the right fore-leg, Stewards ordered the late withdrawal of MUNTAZAH (GB) at 4:50pm. Trainer Mr D Watson was advised that prior to the gelding entering to race again he must provide a veterinary certificate of fitness for MUNTAZAH (GB). WALKING THUNDER (USA) - (C Beasley): Slow to begin. Over-raced in the early stages. QUIP (USA) - (P Dobbs): Raced wide without cover throughout. General: Jockey J Egan (AMBASSADORIAL (USA)) was reprimanded, under the provisions of ERA Rule 69B(a) for using the whip to excess, in that he used it on 14 occasions. Stewards took into account that this was J Egan’s first breach of this Rule for the season. Jockey J Egan (AMBASSADORIAL (USA)) pled guilty to a charge of careless riding under the provisions of ERA Rule 69(i), in that approaching the 1400 metres he permitted his mount to shift in when insufficiently clear of FIGHT ON (USA)(P Cosgrave), which was taken inwards onto SECRET AMBITION (GB)(T O'Shea), who had to be checked when tightened for room. Jockey J Egan had his license to ride in races suspended for three race-meetings (Sharjah 22.02.2020, Meydan 27.02.2020 and Al Ain 28.02.2020). In assessing penalty Stewards took into account J Egan‘s guilty plea and good careless riding.
