Steward Comment

Began awkwardly. Over raced early. Laid out round home turn. Raced in restricted room leaving the 50m. When questioned, Rdr advised intention to lead, however after only beginning fairly, felt it would’ve been detrimental to overly pressure mare considering the step up in distance from its last start over 1350m-added when racing in restricted room between runners early, mare commenced to over race. Cast its near-fore plate in running

Steward Comment

Rdr advised gelding over raced throughout and proved difficult to settle, which had a detrimental effect on the overall performance. Tnr advised consider removing blinkers for next start. A post-race vet exam revealed no abs.
