GENERAL
Due to Covid restrictions, the following overweight was approved:
Race 4 – DYNAMIC VERSE – G Steele + 1kg

Race 1: BUNDABERG TOYOTA Maiden Plate 850M

The start was delayed when TEMPLE MISTRESS dislodged its tongue tie en-route to the barriers and it was unable to be refitted. Stewards granted permission for the mare to race without the tongue tie.

RASHEED – Began awkwardly, shifted in and bumped with METALLIC REIGN. Rider G Hayes reported that the gelding resented the kickback when trailing the field and as a result slow to muster early speed.

SIR JOHNY – Raced wide throughout.

INFORMER – Raced wide throughout. Bumped entering the home straight.

MANDOLIN WIND – Hung out rounding the home turn and made contact with INFORMER. Raced greenly in the home straight.

TEMPLE MISTRESS – Bumped on the hind quarters and became awkward. Jockey M Butler was reprimanded for use of the whip prior to the 100m AR132(7)(a)(ii).

UNSUGARED – Raced wide throughout. Hung out rounding the home turn and in the straight.

METALLIC REIGN – Bumped on jumping.

Race 2: MI SIGNWORX Class B H’Cap 850m

KINGOFTHEHARBOUR – Began awkwardly. Rider D Boutet reported that after being crossed near the 700m the gelding resented the kickback and did not respond to his riding and proved disappointing.

BABA VANGA – Slow to begin. Resented the kickback when trailing the field. Laid out rounding the home turn and the early part of the home straight.

MR NODDY – Performed below market expectations. Rider H Richardson reported that the gelding travelled well in the early and middle stages, however when asked to quicken approaching the home turn it failed to respond to her riding and proved disappointing, adding that the gelding may not have appreciated today’s heavy track conditions. A post-race veterinary examination did not identify any abnormal findings.

SOLID ASSET – Raced wide throughout.

YU LONG SHENG HUI – Shortly after the start was steadied when awkwardly placed at the heels of MR NODDY which laid out momentarily. Resented the kickback when trailing the field and as a result shifted wider near the 700m and raced wide for the remainder.
