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. Trainer B. Guy  | Ipswich  | 29/10/2014  | |

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.

He was of the view he was forced to cover too much ground rounding the home turn and that his mount finished the race off fairly over the concluding stages. He was of the view that the gelding would appreciate a step up in distance at its next start.   | Ipswich  | 25/03/2015  | |
