Steward Comment

Connections advised that it would be the intention for the horse not to lead but to obtain cover. The horse was ridden accordingly and, due to the slow pace set in the early stages, overraced badly and was restrained from heels on a number of occasions prior to the 800m and at that point shifted wider on the track and raced wide from that point onwards. Bumped by another runner when it was obtaining clear running rounding the home turn.

Improved into a position where there was questionable racing room when overracing near the 800m and was then further tightened for room and had to be steadied.

Steward Comment

Trainer T. Thomas advised that the horse would be ridden back in the field if circumstances permit. The horse settled at the rear of the field. Mr Thomas was reprimanded for failing to notify a change of tactics by the prescribed time. Improved into a position where there was questionable racing room when overracing near the 800m and was then further tightened for room and had to be steadied. Restrained from heels on a number of occasions between the 600m and the 400m.

A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings. Trainer G. Clarke was reprimanded for negligence in saddling the filly when it was established that he had incorrectly applied the girth cover when saddling the filly. Mr Clarke was advised that in light of today’s performance, a warning would placed on the filly for being uncompetitive.

Steward Comment

Underwent a veterinary examination on arrival at the barriers and was cleared to race. Slow to begin. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings. Trainer B. Loakes was advised that, in light of today’s poor performance, the gelding’s nomination at TAB venues would be refused until such time as the horse establishes country form.
