AQUABILL – Steadied near the 850m. Near the 150m obliged to steady and change course after improving onto heels. Underwent a post-race veterinary examination which found no apparent abnormalities. Stewards questioned App B Mackie regarding the tactics adopted on AQUABILL. App Mackie stated that the gelding was difficult to ride and inclined to hang and change its stride at various stages. App Mackie felt that the gelding would race best back in the field and that it hit the line well. When asked by Stewards if there was an opportunity to improve between the 800m and home turn App Mackie said that she was mindful of not wanting to come wide on the course as she was inexperienced and attempting to improve her riding skills by looking elsewhere for racing room. Trainer G Schrader also stated that he expected AQUABILL to race in a rearward position and would likely find todays distance too short. Stewards whilst noting the explanation tendered by App Mackie were of the view that she may have erred in the tactics in which she adopted and intend to refer her ride to the Racing Queensland Apprentice Panel for review and further tutorage.

Underwent a pre-race veterinary examination after the gelding appeared to strike its head entering the gates and was passed fit to start with no evident head trauma. Jockey J.Missen was reprimanded for his whip use over the final 300m. When considering penalty Stewards noted Jockey Missen’s very good record regarding the whip rule. Jockey Missen also advised post-race that his left ankle made heavy contact with the barrier partition entering the gates but he was fit to continue riding.
