The winner was actually trained by his jockey, Richard Guest, and owned by Norman Mason, in whose name the training licence was held, with Guest as his assistant, though Guest did all the training at his base in Crook, County Durham and ran in the trainer's colours of red with a blue hoop, three blue hoops on the sleeves and a red and blue hooped cap.The field was limited for safety reasons to a maximum of 40 competitors, of which only two completed the course without mishap and was run in heavy going.
