Steward Comment

Rdr reported gelding commenced to give ground from the 400m and was not entirely comfortable in its action. A post-race vet exam revealed no abs. Tnr reported gelding may have got tongue back and this contributed to the poor performance. Officially trial to the satisfaction of Stewards prior to being permitted to race again.
