Steward Comment

Was fractious in the barriers and when the start was effected Jockey lost the use of his nearside iron, which placed him at a significant disadvantage, then near the 300 metres he was able to get his other foot out of the iron, ultimately resulting in him having no use of his irons for the remainder of the race.

Steward Comment

In the float en route to the course sustained a minor laceration to the off foreleg, was examined by the Club's veterinary surgeon and cleared to take its place in the field. On returning to scale Jockey reported that the mare failed to travel comfortably at any stage and in his opinion did not handle the soft track conditions.

Steward Comment

Bumped at the start. Jockey reported that his mount never travelled comfortably, was inclined to lay out throughout the event and felt awkward in its action. A post-race veterinary examination revealed that the gelding stiff in both hind legs and was displaying a poor recovery rate.
