Commander's Watch Jockey T.

Winnington When questioned by Stewards in relation to the gelding’s seemingly disappointing performance, jockey Beau Appo advised that his mount had failed to show its customary speed today, and did not travel comfortably at any stage of the race. He added that, in his opinion, the gelding may not have handled the firm track conditions today, and when placed under pressure it failed to respond to his riding and proved very disappointing.

Little Spoon Questioned regarding the horse leading, jockey stated that she was instructed to take up a position worse than midfield, but after beginning well her mount found itself in a more forward position and rather than restraining the filly she elected to take up a position in the lead. When questioned regarding the improved performance, trainer’s rep stated that he was surprised to see the filly leading in today’s event but nonetheless would look to continue that racing pattern. Adding it was the filly’s first start for the stable but had pleased in its work and wasn't surprised with the result. Mackay 15/01/2020
