Klopp wins a strange race
KLOPP won well at Newcastle on Saturday. However, she was left out of the stalls when the starter let them go for the first time and the race was then deemed to be a false start.
Half the field including our own QAARAAT completed the course, so had to be withdrawn.
The remainder returned to the start for the race to be re-run. Klopp was soon going easily and moved clear inside the final furlong to win well. We won’t see a similar situation very often.
