Vermithrax  Passing the 600 metres improved onto heels and blundered. When questioned regarding her mount racing back in the field, Jockey said that she was instructed to lead, if possible, however, after beginning reasonably well, she rode her mount along in an attempt to comply with her instructions. However, when runners to her outside showed superior speed she elected to take up a position with cover and from that point her mount raced keenly.  Mackay  17/09/2015 
  Race  6          
Alert This City  Raced ungenerously in the early stages.  Mackay  17/09/2015 
Baron Rees  Hampered approaching the 200 metres when another runner shifted out.  Mackay  17/09/2015 
Bocephus  Approaching the 200m shifted out under pressure. When questioned regarding the poor performance Jockey said that she had to make some use of her mount in the early stages to obtain a position closer to the running rail, rather than be caught wide, however even allowing for this, she said her mount was disappoiniting and weakened from the 200 metres. Jockey added that in her opinion the gelding did not appreciate the quick back-up after Saturday's race. A post-race veterinary examination did not reveal any abnormalities.  Mackay  17/09/2015
