Great Esteem (6-5) ran third.

A deer caused alarm when entering the track after running underneath the rail in the Betway 1m 4½ furlongs Handicap race, forcing Jack Yeats ridden by Jason Hart to shy-away and jink, before swerving, without causing a potential serious incident.

The BHA stewards’ reported three deer were present at the back straight 6 furlongs from the winning post. James Armstrong said: “They’re wild animals and roam about the park.

“We have the odd incident, but we have people out marshalling and covering the area we know they travel across.

“There’s not really a lot we can do – other than drive round and check they’re not out during racing. You can’t cover every area of a vast expansive acreage.”
