Steward Comment

Rider was found guilty of a charge of careless riding under A.R. 137(a) in that shortly after the start he allowed his mount to shift in when insufficiently clear of another runner which was crowded and carried in onto it's inside runner which had to be checked and lost its rightful running. And further allowed his mount to shift in resulting in the inside runners being severely hampered.

Steward Comment

Shortly after the start another runner was taken in onto the geldings hindquarters. On returning to scale Jockey reported that his mount raced greenly throughout.

Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of the gelding Jockey explained that after being buffeted between runners at the start, his mount never travelled comfortably at any stage, and further, that shortly after straightening, when crowded by another runner, his mount failed to respond at this point and was disappointing. A post-race veterinary examination did not reveal any abnormalities.
