Steward Comment

Trainer T. Thomas was questioned regarding the improved performance of the horse. He indicated that the horses 2 starts this preparation have been over shorter distances and has been finishing the races off well and therefore expected a more forward showing with the step up in distance of todays event. He added that, in his opinion, todays race was a lesser quality field and he was therefore not surprised that the horse was more competitive.

Steward Comment

Jockey R. McMahon, rider of HALLSIDE REBEL, was found guilty of a charge of careless riding, in that he directed his mount out at a point leaving the 400m and in doing so made heavy contact and forced QUIRION out at this stage, causing that horse to become severely unbalanced and lose ground. Jockey R. McMahon was suspended from riding in races for a period of 11 days, to commence at midnight, 17 September and to expire at midnight, 28 September.

Change of tactics. Connections advised that the horse would be ridden in the second half of the field if circumstances permit. Blundered on jumping away and then the horse was ridden accordingly.
