Upon arriving at the barriers UNIQUE MISTIQUE was examined by the veterinary surgeon and passed fit to start. Laid out under pressure in the home straight.

Steward Comment

Raced ungenerously with its head in the air in the early stages. Due to the slow tempo, jockey Beau Appo permitted his mount to stride forward to obtain a leading position near the 1400m and, as a result, settled further forward in the field than anticipated.

Steward Comment

Began awkwardly and threw its head in the air on jumping and, as a result, its rider was struck in the face and the gelding lost valuable ground. Dipped on a number of occasions between the 600m and the 400m.
