He said that passing the 500m he attempted to improve on the back of LE JUGE but was left flat-footed, following which GOLD AMBITION improved to his inside and shifted out, resulting in his mount being held up for a short distance, and he was then obliged to shift to the outside to secure clear running and his mount finished the race off well.

The declaration of correct weight was delayed to allow B. Stewart, the rider of 6th placegetter GARIBALDI, to view the stewards’ patrol footage to determine whether he had grounds on which to lodge an objection against 5th placegetter DEVIL’S TEMPTATION. After viewing the videos, jockey Stewart indicated that he did not wish to proceed.

Jockey Harrison was of the view that the gelding may not have appreciated today’s track conditions and noted that it has performed best when its runs have been further spaced. Stable representative Mr A. Kermond explained that the gelding may not have appreciated the short back-up from last start. He said the horse had worked well leading into today’s event ant it may be the stable’s intention to freshen the horse up, space its runs as has occurred previously, and restrict the horse to races of distances shorter than that of today’s event. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings.
