Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the performance, jockey R. Wiggins stated that his mount laid in throughout the event and was disappointing in its finishing efforts. Trainer’s representative Mr G. Wehlow stated that UPPER DELIGHT had pleased in its work leading into today’s event and he was surprised with the disappointing performance. He added that in his opinion UPPER DELIGHT may not have run out a strong 1560m and undertook to advise stewards how the horse pulls up in coming days. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
