Race 2: BROWNLIE CONCRETORS MAIDEN PLATE 2yo & UP SET WEIGHTS 1100m
 
SIMPLY ROSE- Due to a clerical and administrative error the mare may have been shown as racing without blinkers in some form guides. This was incorrect and the mare was to race with that piece of gear. This was advertised by way of oncourse announcement.

COOL INTELLIGENCE- Slow to begin. Raced ungenerously in the early stages. Commenced to hang out from the 800m and took no further competitive part in the race.

Race 4: ST MARY’S KINDERGATED BENCHMARK 55 HANDICAP 1100m

ONE OF THE KIND- Obliged to steady passing the 250m when taken in onto the heels of another runner which was laying out.
 
OAKFIELD TARGET- Inclined to lay out under pressure down the running shifting out and inconveniencing ONE OF THE KIND (App Z Sprie), which had been taken in by DELANEY’S GIRL (M Wishart), passing the 250m. Jockey L Miller was reprimanded as a result of this incident. Performed below market expectations. Jockey L Miller advised that, in his opinion, the gelding was met with tougher competition today than in its most recent starts adding that he believes the gelding may prefer racing on a dirt surface. Stewards noted the comments.

JELLISHOT- Performed below market expectations. App M Philpott advised that, in her opinion, the mare didn’t handle the track but travelled fairly before not letting down as expected.

Mr Baker undertook to advise Stewards should anything become apparent in the mares condition in the coming days. Stewards noted the explanations.
