Oh Boy After standing awkwardly in its stall, then bounded as the gates were released. When asked to comment on the disappointing performance, jockey J.

He added from that point the gelding dropped the bit and never travelled comfortably throughout. A post race veterinary examination did not reveal any abnormality. Doomben 15/02/2017
