GENERAL
 
This meeting was transferred from Saturday 25th September 2022 to today Sunday 26th September 2022 due to rain leading up to this meeting. Stewards inspected the track on the 24th and the 25th of September and found the surface suitable for racing. Stewards requested the Club perform suitable work/s in the way of harrowing the racing surface after races 2 and 4 to ensure the integrity of the track and that it remained suitable for racing.
 
 
Race 1: IGA TAROOM CLASS B HANDICAP 1000 METRES
 
 
CAMAROSA- Hung in for a short distance approaching the 900m point.
 
SOLSKJAER- Slow to begin, failed to go the early speed and raced at the rear of the field for the majority of the event. Jockey S McGovern was reprimanded by Stewards acting under AR132(7)(a)(ii) for his use of the whip on 6 occasions prior to the 100m, one more than permitted.
 
MY BIG BROTHER- Laid in under pressure over the final stages of the event.
 
 
Race 2: QTIS MAIDEN PLATE 1200 METRES
 
 
JUNGLELAND- Slow to begin.
 
KINGSFORD’S OWN- Due to the timeframe since the horse’s previous race start, stewards ordered a pre-race veterinary examination to ensure the gelding was fit to run. This examination revealed no abnormalities and subsequently passed fit to race. At the 300m point raced just outside of the leader and ran on strongly over the final stages.
 
THE STONE MASON- Raced three- wide with no coverfor the majority.
 
FLAMING VICTORY- Travelled three- wide with no cover for the majority of the event.

OAKFIELD TARGET- Began well and led until the 600m point when it was momentarily headed by another runner and then ran on strongly over the final stages.
 
MUSK LOLLIE- Jockey S McGovern reported to Stewards that his mount has momentarily stumbled and became unbalanced losing some ground when passing the 800m point, then raced wide with no cover for the majority of the event.
 
BINNALONG BELLE- Was slow to begin.
 
RURAL REBEL- Travelled wide for the majority of the race. Appr Jockey T Townsend was reprimanded by Stewards acting under AR132(7)(a)(i) for the use of the whip in a consecutive manner prior to the 100m point.

I’M THE BUSINESS- Raced wide with no cover for the majority.
 
ZORRO’S GHOST- Slow to begin, and then despite the efforts of its rider tended to pull and over race for some distance from the 1000m point. Weakened from the 300m point. Stewards spoke with Trainer J Crompton who advised the run was disappointing, but the horse did over race for the majority of the event. Stewards noted Ms Crompton’s comments and took no further action regarding the matter.
 
AVISON- Slow to begin, raced wide for the majority of the event.
 
Race 5: LEICHHARDT HOTEL TAROOM CUP OPEN HANDICAP 1400 METRES

KALIYA- When approaching the 400m point tended to hang out and after being crossed by KAPPY CINO did commence to weaken over the final stages of the event. Jockey K Yoshida reported to stewards that his mount had to work hard during the early stages of the race when leading. He further stated that the horse felt well in transit and may benefit from a spell. Stewards noted Jockey Yoshida’s comments. Due to the seemingly disappointing performance over the final 300m, Stewards ordered that the Mare be swabbed post-race and further, was examined by the attending Veterinarian with no abnormalities being detected.
