Hutchinson later stated "My staff have been brilliant to me following the death of Olive and I would like to thank them so much - I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for them."

However, she added "I would have withdrawn Wellforth today if he was in a later race because he likes better ground. However it was loose ground today and we'll aim at another handicap next."
