Steward Comment

Near 1200m improved onto heels, was steadied, and shifted wider on the track. Near the 800m when over-racing, improved to the inside of BOULT, shifted in crowding AGENY OF MAYHEM which in turn was taken in resulting in SILVERBROOK LAD being hampered and losing ground. ALLUDERE, which was following, was inconvenienced in this incident. Laid in under pressure near the 150m.

Slow to begin. Near 1200m improved onto heels, was steadied, and shifted wider on the track. Inconvenienced near the 800m. Disappointed for a run near the 100m and went to the line without being fully tested by its rider.

Steward Comment

After casting the offside plate and it being unable to be refitted, permission was given for the near hind plate to be removed and the horse to race bare behind. Raced wide in the early stages. Crowded for room approaching the home turn when BARTALUMBA laid out and KINGS ROW rolled in momentarily. Near the 150m placed in restricted room when KINGS ROW shifted in under pressure. D McGillivray, rider of KINGS ROW, was advised to exercise greater care.
