SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT
 
From Doomben 2.9.17
 
Race 5: Trainer M. Dunn advised that HANWRITTEN had now been sent for a spell and he undertook to trial the horse when it resumes racing.
 
Race 7: K. Schweida, trainer of LLENTRECOTE, reported that following the event it was revealed the gelding had suffered an injury to its off foreleg and would now be retired from racing.
 
Race 1: ST VINCENTTS PRIVATE HOSPITAL BRISBANE QTIS 3YO H'CAP 1110M
 
PERFECT RAIN Held up in the early stages of the straight.
 
Race 2: EILEEN & WILLIAM DUFFUS MEMORIAL F&M BENCHMARK 85 H'CAP 1200M
 
J. Orman was dislodged from FINAL ZERO following the event, suffering no apparent injury. The horse was quickly recaptured and ridden back to the enclosure, resulting in a slight delay to weighing in.
 
OF THE DAY Raced wide without cover. When questioned regarding his riding of the mare, R. Fradd stated that he had been instructed to settle the horse behind the leaders but was prevented from taking up this position when MAGNUS COR maintained a position one off the rail. He added that he did not wish to restrain his mount behind MAGNUS COR near the 800m as he was mindful that when OF THE DAY beat FINAL ZERO at Doomben on 12 August, it took almost the entire straight to run that mare down, and with FINAL ZEROOs light weight today, he was of the belief that he would be giving that mare too much start.
 
GRETNA J. Byrne reported at scale that he was disappointed in the marees performance, however could offer no excuses.
 
MAGNUS COR Had to be restrained off heels approaching the first turn. P. Hammersley was questioned regarding his tactics. He advised that as the mare had been tardy out of the barriers at her previous start, he had been instructed to position the horse close to the lead, and whilst MAGNUS COR did not jump extremely well, he was intent on holding a position outside of STAR OF NIGHT. He added that approaching the first turn jockey Fradd had placed some pressure on him when OF THE DAY attempted to shift in and force him towards the rail, however he was intent on holding his position. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings.
 
Race 3: ZOUKI GROUP C,G&E BENCHMARK 85 H'CAP 1200M
 
EL SASSO Raced fiercely approaching the first turn.
 
Race 4: ST VINCENTTS CARE SERVICES OPEN H'CAP 1350M
