Steward Comment

Near the 700m was eased when racing in restricted room. Eased from heels near the 500m after racing wide. Jockey J. Orman reported his mount was inclined to hang in throughout the event and did not handle the rain affected conditions.

Steward Comment

Raced wide without cover. When asked to comment, jockey M. McGillivray stated that the performance was disappointing, however attributed this to being caught wide and his mount failing to handle the rain affected conditions.
