Steward Comment

Change of tactics, to be ridden more conservatively at the start. After beginning awkwardly, ridden accordingly with cover. Checked from the heels of GREEK STAR near the 1000m when the pace steadied. Held up for clear running rounding the home turn. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a laceration to the near hind leg, consistent with having been galloped on during the race.

Steward Comment

Very slow to begin then became awkwardly placed at the heels of NISHIKORI and shifted out. Raced keenly when the pace steadied near the 1000m. Rider L Cassidy advised Stewards the gelding travelled well throughout the event and despite the slow tempo in the early and middle stages did not finish the race off as well as expected. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
