Steward Comment

When asked about performance, Rdr stated gelding, which was first up, failed to muster speed early and when placed under pressure in the home straight, made good ground indicating it would be better suited over a further distance.

Near the 400m, became awkwardly placed on heels, clipped heels and blundered. Held up for clear run from the 250m to the 200m. A post-race vet exam revealed no abs.

Steward Comment

Rdr reported gelding was disappointing when placed under pressure. A post-race vet exam revealed gelding to have a laceration to the near-hind leg, consistent with being galloped on.
