Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the tactics adopted, Jockey J Morris stated that he had been instructed to ride the gelding positively out of the barriers in an attempt to obtain a forward position. Jockey Morris added that these instructions were issued on the basis that the gelding had performed well when ridden in that fashion at its Victorian starts. Trainer J Walk confirmed the instructions and noted that the gelding was up in distance today. Mr Walk was reminded of his obligations to advise stewards of any intended change of tactics.

Steward Comment

Jockey D Griffin reported that the gelding failed to travel comfortably at any stage and proved disappointing. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any apparent abnormalities at the time of examination.
