Steward Comment

Stewards interviewed trainer T. Thomas regarding the performance. He indicated at the horse’s most recent start it had been a long time between runs and he had freshened the horse up in order to start the horse over the distance of 1200m. He added the horse had some difficulty securing clear running at this start and he was not surprised by the forward showing in today’s event when stepped up to 1600m.
