Steward Comment

Jumped out at the start and bumped BRAZEN BRECCIA. Had to be steadied when awkwardly placed at the heels of BUCKIN’ LUCKY when attempting a narrow run near the 400m. C Meehan, rider of A BIG CHANCE, was advised to exercise greater care in similar circumstances.

Steward Comment

Rider M Hellyer reported the horse felt awkward in its action on pulling up. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant abnormalities other than the horse coughing on several occasions. Trainer K Kemp indicated he would now consider adding a tongue tie to the horse’s approved gear going forward.
