Jumped awkwardly. .A post-race veterinary examination of City Mission revealed a small skin laceration to the near foreleg below the knee. Trainer J McConachy was notified that he will be required to provide a veterinary clearance prior to the horse racing or trialing again.

Steward Comment

When held up for clear running making the home turn, Wicked Chance was steadied off the heels of the leader Flaming Homor which commenced to hang out. Wicked Chance shifted out abruptly and made heavy contact on two occasions with Fodor. Jockey J Murphy became momentarily unbalanced in the saddle because of the heavy contact. At the 200 metres Wicked Chance had to be steadied around heels to obtain clear running.
