Steward Comment

Over-raced during the early and middle stages. When asked to comment on the tactics adopted, specifically his level of vigour from the 400m to the 200m, rider advised that the gelding had not been suited by the tight-turning track and had been proving somewhat difficult to ride-out. He further added that given the gelding’s racing manners, he had been reluctant to place his mount under full pressure rounding the home-turn. He added once the gelding became balanced on straightening, it had finished off its event well.

Stood flat-footed as the start was effected and lost significant ground. Raced wide and without cover from the 600m. Trainer was advised that the gelding would be required to barrier trial to Stewards’ satisfaction prior to racing again.

When questioned regarding the performance, rider reported that the gelding may have got its tongue over the bit in running. A post-race veterinary examination revealed that the gelding choked down.
