Commandeering Jockey N Callow reported that in his opinion the gelding races best when able to control the tempo of races and for that reason when clearly headed by COSMIC SERENADE in the early stages, COMMANDEERING was at a disadvantage for the remainder of the event and ran on only fairly when placed under pressure from the 400m.

Cosmic Serenade When questioned in relation to the seemingly improved performance, trainer M Morrison advised that in his opinion the mare resented the cross over noseband last start and for that reason he removed this gear from the horse for today’s event. Mr Morrison added that the drop back in distance to 900m, where the mare has previously performed well, was also a major contributing factor to the improved performance. Stewards noted the explanation. Aquis Park Gold Coast 01/11/2022
