Steward Comment

Jockey M. Hellyer was fined $100 for using his whip more than 5 times prior to the 100m. In assessing penalty stewards took into account jockey Hellyer’s very good record in relation to whip rule breaches.

Steward Comment

When asked to comment on the performance of his mount, which he indicated was disappointing, stated that the horse settled at the rear of the field, as is its recent pattern, and despite travelling comfortably throughout did not respond to his riding and was very disappointing in the run to the line. He could not offer any tangible explanation for the performance other than to state that carrying 60 kilograms may have had some bearing. A post race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities and a swab sample was taken.
