• Froden only manages third, 14 lengths behind Forest Bihan
Frodon was thoroughly eclipsed on his return to action and low sun was at least partly to blame, as the game little chaser was only third in the Old Roan here. Course officials decided the three fences in the home straight would have to be missed out on both circuits because the angle of the sun was making them hard to see from the take-off side, but taking the emphasis off jumping ability was no help to Frodon.
