Near the 1500m checked from heels and then over-raced for some distance thereafter. Held up rounding the home turn.

Near the 1500m had to be steadied when placed in restricted room to the inside of WINDMILL FOLLIES which shifted in.

Steward Comment

Jockey G Colless reported that the gelding raced flat throughout and was disappointing in its inability to finish the race off as expected. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no apparent abnormalities. When questioned regarding the performance of the gelding stable representative Mr D Moore expressed disappointment with the performance of the gelding today and in his opinion may have come to the end of its preparation. He further added that in light of this he would send the gelding for a short let-up.

Steward Comment

A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to have a poor post-race recovery. Trainer B Guy indicated that the gelding is better suited on rain-affected tracks.
