A post-race vet exam revealed blood in the mouth and a dislodged tooth, consistent with the horse having struck its mouth in the barriers prior to the start being effected. Vet cert rqd prior to racing again.

Steward Comment

Slow to begin (2L). Raced wide from the 700m. When questioned Rdr stated after being slow to begin, was obliged to settle further back than anticipated, and after commencing to improve into the race from the 700m, was forced wider, adding when placed under pressure in the home straight, finished the race off fairly.

Steward Comment

When asked about performance, Rdr reported gelding commenced to make an abnormal breathing noise leaving the 800m and a short distance later began to weaken-added had recommended to connections to add a tongue tie. A post race vet exam revealed no abs. Tnr advised now intention to have gelding scoped and Stewards will follow up with the stable.
