Slow to begin. Steadied when disappointed for a run near the 300m, and shifted to the outside to secure clear running.

Improved onto the heels of another runner near the 1300m and then shifted out abruptly. Forced wider on the track by another running rounding the home turn.

Shifted in on jumping away and made contact with another runner. Laid in under pressure in the home straight and proved difficult to ride out.

Steward Comment

Tightened for room at the start. Apprentice N. Keal could offer no explanation for the seemingly disappointing performance of the gelding, which he advised had travelled well throughout but failed to respond when asked to quicken. A post-race veterinary examination of the gelding revealed it to be exhibiting a poor post-race recovery, and that it had lost the off hind plate.

Steward Comment

After being caught wide in the early stages, Apprentice Z. White permitted her mount to stride forward to obtain the leading position passing the 1000m. Apprentice Z. White could offer no explanation for the seemingly disappointing performance other than that the gelding had been inclined to overrace which may have been detrimental to its finishing sprint. A post-race veterinary examination of the gelding revealed no apparent abnormalities.

Steward Comment

Overraced in the early and middle stages. Following the poor performance, the stable representative for Mr. M. Hemmings was advised that a warning will be placed on the gelding. The stable representative was further advised that should the horse perform in a similar manner in the future, consideration will be given to preventing it from racing at TAB venues until such time as its form improves.
