Began awkwardly. Jockey R. Fradd explained that his mount, which can be fractious in the stalls, was again today standing awkwardly when the gates were released. He said his intention had been to ride in a forward position however tried to obtain cover but because of the way it began, he was reluctant to ride it forward as the horse can overrace. Jockey Fradd added that after being crossed with the slow tempo, he ended up racing further back in the field than anticipated.

Blundered near the 1100m. Questioned re performance rider stated intention to settle in forward position, consistent with recent starts, however after being slow to begin was obliged to settle worse than midfield. From this position, behind a moderate tempo, he was pleased with the ground it made down the straight on a track typically favouring forward runners. Trainer agreed with riders comments and advised he would step the gelding up in distance next start to give it greater opportunity of establishing a forward position. Post race vet did not reveal any abnormality

Jockey J. Lloyd explained that once straightening the horse changed stride and, in his opinion, was slightly unbalanced. He said after this he endeavoured to get the horse to change stride, which he did shortly after before being able to fully test his mount.
