Steward Comment

Change of tactics. Connections advised if circumstances permit the horse would be ridden in a more forward position than its previous starts from the favourable barrier position today. The horse was ridden accordingly. Apprentice S. Lacy reported her mount raced greenly throughout the event and hung out from leaving the 700m.

Steward Comment

Stewards asked jockey R. Stewart to comment on the tactics adopted and the performance of the horse. He indicated it had been his intention to ride in a more forward position, however after beginning well and attempting to secure a position in the forward half of the field formed the opinion he would be caught wide if he continued to press forward and therefore he elected to steady and take up a position in the second half of the field. He added that after passing the 600m he placed pressure on I’M JUST PINK and the mare did not respond immediately, however when shifted wider on the track in

Bumped by another runner and became unbalanced at the start. Near the 500m was placed in restricted room and had to be steadied. Overraced throughout the event.
