SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT
 
From SCTC 1.6.19 – Race 7: Trainer A. Williamson reported following the event that RED BALTER had pulled up sore over the chest. Mr Williamson was advised that the gelding will require a veterinary clearance prior to racing again.
 
Race 1: MITAVITE THE PHOENIX – 1630M
 
CREATOR – Raced three wide without cover throughout. Laid inwards over the final 100m and in so doing brushed FASANO over the concluding stages.
 
SOUTHERN SWING – Jumped awkwardly and lost ground. Raced three wide in the early stages before being ridden forward to the lead near the 900m.
 
AUTOCRATIC – Overraced in the early and middle stages. Held up in the early part of the straight. When questioned regarding his riding over the concluding stages, jockey J. McDonald stated that he was concerned with the gelding as it had made an abnormal respiratory noise, however he felt he had ridden his mount out to the end of the race. Jockey McDonald was reminded of his obligations to ensure he rides his mounts out to the end of the race. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings.
 
ACCESSORY – Slow to begin and as a result settled at the rear of the field which is in contrast to its usual racing pattern.
 
BROCKY – Had to be eased near the 1300m when tightened for room between FASANO, which shifted in, and AUTOCRATIC, which shifted out slightly when overracing.
 
FASANO – Overraced in the middle stages. Bumped on a number of occasions over the concluding stages when CREATOR shifted in under pressure.
 
WISHFILLY – Overraced in the early stages.
 
VALADYIUM – The veterinary surgeon reported the presence of blood in the horse’s mouth post-race.
 
Race 2: AUTHENTIC SECURITY OXLADE STAKES – 1200M
 
READY TO ROAM – Restrained at the start to the rear of the field to gain a position closer to the rail.
 
GUNTANTES – Held up in the early part of the home straight. Inclined to lay in when placed under pressure in the home straight.
 
DIAMOND THUNDER – Held up rounding the home turn and in the early part of the home straight.
 
POCKET PISTOL – Had to be eased near the 300m to avoid the heels of CALIFORNIA ZIMBOL, which shifted in abruptly.
 
NIEDORP – Raced three wide in the early stages before being ridden forward to race outside the leader at the 700m.
 
LONGBOTTOM – Near the 1000m bumped by PERUDO, which shifted in.
 
EPAUMADA – Held up for clear running in the home straight until near the 150m where it altered course to the outside of PERUDO in order to improve.
 
CALIFORNIA ZIMBOL – Overraced in the early stages. Improved up on to the heels of POCKET PISTOL and when that runner shifted out, CALIFORNIA ZIMBOL was taken wider on the track. Hung in badly when placed under pressure in the early part of the home straight.
 
CLEVER MISS – L. Tarrant was fined $300 for returning to scale in excess of half a kilogram over the horse’s allocated weight.
 
Race 3: TAB CLASS 6 PLATE – 1200M
 
OF THE DAY – Jumped awkwardly and lost ground. Held up in the early part of the home straight.
 
GAULOIS – Held up in the home straight until after passing the 200m when it altered course to the outside of TRAUMATISED in order to improve. Stewards sought an explanation from rider T. Clark regarding the tactics he adopted approaching and rounding the home turn and whether he had the opportunity to shift to the outside of DEFENCE MISSILE instead of improving towards the inside and ultimately being held up for clear running. Jockey Clark explained that had he improved to the outside of DEFENCE MISSILE rounding the home turn he was of the view that he would have had to cover additional ground which would not have been in the best interests of the horse. He further stated that when PAPER TRADE shifted out upon straightening he was able to improve to the inside of that runner and soon afterwards bumped with OF THE DAY on a couple of occasions before being held up and getting clear from the 250m. Stewards noted his explanation.
 
TRAUMATISED – Bumped at the start. Overraced in the early stages and approaching the 800m improved up on to the heels of PAPER TRADE and shifted out four wide around DEFENCE MISSILE and for the remainder of the event raced three wide without cover.
 
DEFENCE MISSILE – Shifted in at the start and bumped TRAUMATISED. Raced three wide without cover.
 
Race 4: SKY RACING MORETON CUP – 1200M
 
Apprentice M. Murphy pleaded guilty to a charge under AR185 in that after weighing out he changed the girth and was fined the sum of $500. As a result of apprentice M. Murphy then being unable to make the weight upon reweighing, he was replaced by apprentice J. Murphy as the rider of ECHO EFFECT.
 
Apprentice M. Murphy also pleaded guilty to a further charge under AR228(b) in that after being stood down and replaced on ECHO EFFECT he misconducted himself in the vicinity of the scales area and the jockeys’ room and was fined the sum of $1000.
 
Apprentice M. Murphy was advised of his rights to an Internal Review.

GOLDFINCH – Had to be eased from the heels of DARKTOWN STRUTTER near the 900m and soon afterwards had to be eased to avoid the heels of LUCY ROSE, which shifted in when not fully clear. Near the 150m became momentarily awkward on the heels of FROM WITHIN which weakened.
 
Race 6: INNOVATIVE HIRE SPEAR CHIEF H'CAP – 1350M
 
NICCANOVA – Trainer S. Tregea advised that the horse would be ridden further forward, however, from the wide barrier, rather than be caught wide, it was taken back in the field.
 
REDOUBLE – When questioned, rider B. Shinn advised that he had received no specific instructions from the trainer, however, it was his intention to race in a midfield position.

Held up rounding the home turn and in the early part of the home straight. J. Childs, the rider of DUNLANI, will be advised to exercise more care in similar circumstances.
