Raced in restricted room and was buffeted when racing in a one wide position to the inside of CAPRI OF TUFFY for some distance between the 900m and 600m.

Began awkwardly and lost ground.

Slow to begin. Rider J Byrne reported the horse travelled well to 500m however when placed under pressure in the home straight floundered in its action. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the horse to short striding behind. Trainer D Vandyke was advised JOY TO ALL would require a veterinary clearance prior to its next race start.
