The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board has opened an investigation into a controversial race at Wexford on Wednesday. Redwood Queen looked a likely winner of the opening hurdle race on the card until losing his rider Philip Byrnes shortly after they had jumped the final obstacle. The incident allowed the odds-on favourite Beacon Edge to win. Redwood Queen, trained by the jockey's father Charles Byrnes, had drifted markedly in the betting before the race started.
