Steward Comment

Approaching the 1500m, steadied after improving onto heels. Over raced in the middle stages. Passing the 1000m, attempted to shift out to improve and when doing so, bumped another runner on a number of occasions before having to shift back in after being disappointed for that run. Passing the 500m, had difficulty improving into clear running after attempting to shift out to improve. After being contacted on a number of occasions approaching the 400m, was able to secure clear running on entering the home straight.

Steward Comment

Passing the 1000m was bumped on a number of occasions. When questioned re below market expectation performance, Rdr reported mount travelled well in the early and middle stages, but after being pressured at various stages by another runner, mount commenced to weaken passing the 400m and ran to the line only fairly. A post-race vet exam revealed no abs.
