Stewards accepted both parties’ comments and took no further action in relation to this matter.
BUTTER FACE (J.Geppert) proved difficult to load.
RINGING RUPERT (J. Rudd) travelled wide throughout.
Stewards spoke to Trainer Mr R. Robb regarding the seemingly disappointing performance of COSY RUG. Mr Robb could offer no reason as to the horse’s performance and thought he would run well today. The horse was examined by the attending Veterinarian and no abnormalities were detected.
Stewards spoke with Trainer Pat Webster regarding the seemingly improved performance of his horse THE CHARMED ONE at today’s meeting. Mr Webster stated he felt the filly would run well today as it had been working very well and the stable thought the change in gear and drop in class would help the horse’s chances today.
