Steward Comment

Trainer L. Ross was questioned regarding the gelding's improved performance. Mr Ross stated that the gelding appears to race better at Eagle Farm and has won three races at the track. He added that the horse also appreciates the distance of today's event of 1400m, and noted that today he removed the blinkers, which may have assisted the horse's chances.

Had to be checked when attempting to improve shortly after entering the straight. Held up and unable to improve for some distance approaching the 200m and did not obtain clear running until the 100m.

Steward Comment

Raced wide from the 800m. Apprentice B. Grylls was questioned regarding her tactics. She stated that she had been instructed to ride the gelding with cover and due to its wide barrier the horse raced further back in the field than it has at previous starts. Trainer R. Heathcote will be questioned regarding the instructions given to apprentice Grylls.
