Looking ahead

What we learned / things to watch

Golly Gosh and La Kosmos were serious contenders despite being beaten. Keep checking a horse’s ability to finish its race, and treat competitive runner-up efforts differently from clear defeats.

Jumping errors featured in Alan Bresil’s and Barrogstown Girl’s defeats. Check whether those problems recur next time; one successful day does not prove every selection was comfortable.
