STEWARDS REPORT

DAWSON JOCKEY CLUB

TAROOM – SATURDAY – 28TH September 2024

WEATHER – Fine TRACK RATING – Dirt RAIL – True


OFFICIALS

Stewards – F Hartford (Chair), T Preston.

General

As Jockey N Fazackerley was unable to fulfill his riding engagement in race 5 due to weight reasons, Stewards permitted the rider change as per the Stewards race-day summary.


Race 1: IGA TAROOM BENCHMARK 45 HANDICAP 1000 M

BEST SIDE: Shortly after the start, the gelding took a few awkward strides and lost a considerable ground. Held up for clear running from the 200m. App M. Goring reported the gelding jumped well and shortly after, was reluctant to go forward and commenced to buck for few strides, before finding its stride. Trainer R. Frazer could offer no explanation for the disappointing performance. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities. Trainer R. Frazer was advised a warning has been placed on BEST SIDE for racing manners.

DEEP MYSTIQUE: Rolled in under pressure leaving the 200m.

ANNAKURI: A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities.

LONERGY: Slow away. Shifted in under pressure leaving the 100m, obliging Jockey B. Newport to momentary stop riding and straighten the gelding.

OUTBACK PLAYBOY: Slow away. Raced three-wide without cover for majority.

LAYLAH'S WISH: When the gates opened, the mare stood flat-footed, turned its head to nearside, losing considerable ground. LAYLAH’S WISH then took no competitive part throughout the event. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities. When questioned on the performance, trainer Miss M. Hill stated the mare was showing signs of a long preparation and will now be spelled. Trainer Miss M. Hill was advised LAYLAH’S WISH is required to complete a barrier trial to the satisfaction of the Stewards, prior to racing again.


Race 2: TAROOM PHARMACY BENCHMARK 60 HANDICAP-BILL COGILL MEMORIAL TROPHY 1000 M

Prior to correct weight, Stewards viewed the photo finish of first placing, where the Judge had declared GRAEWAZI as the winner of the race, BETTER RUSH being placed second & SUNIKI third. The review revealed that BETTER RUSH had clearly won the race, ahead of GRAEWAZI, which was second. Subsequently, Stewards amended the placings to read:

1st: BETTER RUSH
2nd: GRAEWAZI
3rd: SUNIKI
Correct weight was declared on the amended placings. The matter will be raised with the Club and Racing Queensland.

SUNIKI: Laid in under pressure down the home straight,

ROSE OF TAORMINA: Slow into stride and raced at the rear of the field throughout.


Race 3: COUNTRYSIDE ELECTRICS QTIS MAIDEN PLATE-OWEN BRODIE MEMORIAL TROPHY1200 M

DESTINY GUNGHO: Shifted in approaching the 1000m, tightening SQUAISH and HORRIBLE HANK. Rider P. Randall was reprimanded under AR131(a) for Careless riding.

EMPEROR TEIO: Approaching the 100m, momentarily raced in restricted room.

FLAWLESS AMBITION: Shifted in leaving the 200m, obliging Rider D. Boutet to stop riding for a few strides to straighten his mount.

LEROY LION: Slow away. Raced wide without cover for the majority.

SQUAMISH: Raced in restricted room approaching the 1000m.

BOYSAREBACKINTOWN: Approaching the 100m, shifted in under pressure, momentarily tightening EMPEROR TEIO, before being straightened.

HORRIBLE HANK: Raced in restricted room approaching the 1000m. Rider H. Richardson reported the gelding did not appreciate racing in restricted room, and she felt obliged to ease her mount, consequently racing at tail of the field for the remainder.

Race 4: PHIPPS FAMILY TRUST BENCHMARK 50 HANDICAP-DAPHNE DONNER PATRONS 1400 M

HEAT: Raced wide without cover for majority.

DANTE ALIGHIERI: Hung out around home turn into home straight.

TAUTY: Failed to finish. Rider D. Boutet reported the mare put in a few awkward strides approaching the 800m and was reluctant to go forward, obliging him to ease the mare out of the race. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities. Trainer S. McEwan was advised a veterinary clearance is required prior to the mare completing a barrier trial to the satisfaction of Stewards prior to racing again. Further, he was reminded of his obligations to report anything that may arise in the forthcoming days.

Race 5: LEICHHARDT HOTEL TAROOM CUP/COUNTRY CUPS CHALLENGE QUALIFIER OPEN HANDICAP 1400 M
