The Ambassadore When asked to comment, J. Byrne indicated that the horse raced on its wrong leg from the 800m until approaching the home turn. He indicated that he did not believe this had an overly detrimental effect on the horse’s performance, which in his opinion was disappointing given that when asked for a response in the straight the horse weakened. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no significant findings. Sunshine Coast 12/11/2017

Victory Eight Bumped heavily and then crowded on jumping. Rider questioned - stated intention to be in handy position however, after beginning awkwardly then being crowded at start raced further back than anticipated.
