Rider reported that he was instructed to ride with some vigour in the early stages with the intent to get the gelding to travel and when he was trapped extremely wide on the track approaching the 1600m rather than restrain and lose several lengths to settle in a rearward position he elected to allow the gelding to stride forward. | $6 | |||
