Approaching the 100 metres improved onto the heels of a weakening runner, was held up and had to be shifted out to obtain clear running.

Crowded for room between runners at the start. Rounding the turn near the 500 metres improved onto heels and had to be checked.

Threw its head up in the air at the start and lost ground. For some distance approaching the 200 metres raced in restricted room and could not be fully tested.

Passing the 200 metres was momentarily inconvenienced, and then inside the final 100 metres had to be steadied when awkwardly placed on heels. Passing the 100 metres Jockey accidentally dropped his whip.

Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the disappointing performance, Jockey explained that her mount travelled comfortably in the lead throughout, however was under pressure shortly after straightening and weakened noticeably from that point. A post-race veterinary examination revealed that the gelding was displaying a poor recovery rate. Trainer undertook to report back in the days subsequent.
