8 | 57.0kg | - | 1-13.46 | 800m: 1st 400m: 1st | When questioned regarding the improved performance, Trainer B Baldwin explained that the mare was having its first race start for his stable. He added that when ARC LIGHT first arrived at his stable he was advised that the mare had some poor racing characteristics which led to poor performances. He further added that these characteristics had improved under his care resulting in the mare performing well in 3 recent jump-outs. | $101 | ||
3 | 57.0kg | 0.50 | 800m: 6th 400m: 6th | Checked shortly after the start when tightened for room. Near the 800m bumped and placed in restricted room. A short distance later near the 700m forced inwards. | $41 | |||

7 | 54.5kg | 9.90 | 800m: 5th 400m: 5th | Raced 3 wide during the early stages before obtaining a position with cover near the 700m. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the filly to be lame in the off hind leg. | $1.65 | |||

6 | 57.0kg | 22.40 | 800m: 9th 400m: 9th | Began awkwardly and made contact with SHINSTAR. Jockey N Thomas reported at scale that in his opinion the mare failed to handle the track conditions and may have also resented racing with a cross-over noseband. | $61 | |||
