SATURDAY 7th May 2022

OFFICIALS

Club Stewards: D Moloney, B Somerset
Clerk of Scales: B Davis

Veterinarian: Dr S Kelly
Starter: A Downes
 
General
Stewards permitted the following weight variations:
Race 1: TRUE TALLY - H Phillips – 55.5kg (+0.5kg)
Race 1: RURAL REBEL – M Gray -55.5kgs (+0.5kg)
Race 1: HANGRY – G Geran – 55.5kgs (0.5kg)
 
Race 1 - BAND 0 - 60 Handicap 1050 METRES
 
After the field had been loaded rainfall intensity increased with the race run in heavy rain, and as a result the track was downgraded retrospectively to a Heavy 8.
 
COMMANDING WITNESS – Raced wide for the majority of the event.
 
IGBO – Rider G Steele reported she refrained from pressuring the horse from the 300m after it became unbalanced due the wet track conditions.
 
HANGRY – Began awkwardly and lost ground. Rider G Geran reported he was struck in the eye by a clod near the 800m which had an adverse impact on his visibility for the remainder of the race. 
 
RURAL REBEL – Laid in for a short distance near the 700m.
MY TARANAKI – As had not started for an extended period, underwent a pre-race veterinary examination, and was cleared to start. Began awkwardly and lost ground.
 
RAPID EAGLE – Approaching the finish line shied and shifted out resulting in rider H Richardson being obliged to stop riding the horse in her usual manner at that point.
 
TRUE TALLY – Change of tactics, from the wide barrier to be ridden back in the field if circumstances permit. Ridden accordingly. Raced wide throughout.
 
Following the running of this event Stewards delayed the start of Race 2 and conducted an inspection of the racing surface along with a delegation of riders and Club officials. Two sections near the 1000m and the 1400m were identified as having significant amounts of water lying on track, and given the forecast of continuing steady rain for the remainder of the afternoon, Races 2 – 5 were abandoned after consultation with Racing Qld officials at 2:45pm.
