Pulsar  Initially slow to begin and then was severely hampered by SILLIQUA and lost ground. When asked to comment on the performance of the gelding, rider J.

only fairly. Ms Jamieson stated that her mount raced like a
horse not interested in racing. When questioned, trainer Mr H. Norman stated the
mare had worked well and he was very disappointed with its performance. Mr
Norman added that the stable would assess the immediate racing future of the
4
mare in the coming days. 
Ballina  30/03/2015 
Tartan Warrior  Rider J. Byrne explained that the tempo mid-race was only moderate and as he has done previously he elected to allow the horse to stride forward from the 700m as the horse is not one that is able to sprint when the pace quickens. He said despite this TARTAN WARRIOR did not respond and was a beaten horse prior to the home turn and in his opinion was most disappointing. He added that there appeared to be no obvious issues with TARTAN WARRIOR other than in his opinion it raced like a tired horse and he had recommended to connections that the horse should be spelled.
