Steward Comment

Laid out under pressure in the home straight. When questioned by Stewards in relation to the seemingly improved performance, Trainer T. Hurley advised that, in his opinion, the gelding’s form was better than it appeared on paper, having only been beaten approximately 5 lengths at its most recent starts. He added that the gelding was also better suited by being able to race in a more forward position when stepping up in distance today, and further added that, in his opinion, this race was somewhat weaker than the horse’s previous starts. Stewards noted the explanation.

Steward Comment

Raced in restricted room and was eased near the 600m when WHY WOULDN’T YOU (M. Hellyer) shifted out. Jockey L. Tilley reported that he was instructed to obtain cover on the filly from the wide barrier if possible and, in an endeavour to comply with the instructions, he was forced to settle further back in the field than anticipated. Refer full report for further comments.

Laid out under pressure over the concluding stages and, as a result, had to be straightened by its rider.

Slow to begin. Raced keenly near the 1100m, and had to be steadied to avoid the heels of STRAWBERRY BLONDE (L. Tilley) which shifted in when not completely clear.
