Race 2 TOWER HARDWARE BENCHMARK 75 HANDICAP – 1100M:
TEAM THUNDERSTONE (W. Doyle) was slow to begin.
Stewards questioned Jockey R. Kerwin in regards to the poor performance of WINDEL TORI. Jockey Kerwin reported that her mount hung out during the early and middle stages of the event. She further added that she was unable to test her mount out fully over the concluding stages and in her opinion was disappointing. A subsequent veterinary inspection of the mare found that there were no significant abnormalities. Trainer B. Waldron advised stewards that he would be considering the mare’s future racing career.

Shortly after the start EDWARDSCISSORHANDS was tightened for room between CRASH BAM BOOM (R. Kerwin) and MAXIMUM VISION, which shifted in marginally. As a result EDWARDSCISSORHANDS lost ground.
