Good Job Bro  Rider questioned re disappointing performance. She said after being caught wide in the early stages she was forced to work up the hill to enable her mount to cross to a position closer to the rails, which she felt was to its detriment, however when placed under pressure over the concluding stages the gelding failed to run on and proved disappointing. Tnr said the horse has a history of racing poorly when unable to obtain cover in its races, which he felt was a major contributing factor to the performance.
