After being crossed near the 1000m, attempted to shift to a one-off position, however, was prevented from doing so by NEWMARKET MISS, and as a result bumped with that runner before being steadied from heels

Steward Comment

Began awkwardly. Near the 900m, when shifting out to improve, bumped with another runner and became unbalanced. On returning to scale, jockey E Chaves reported that the gelding travelled well until a point approaching the home turn, where when placed under pressure, immediately came under pressure, and failed to run on in the home straight. Trainer L Freedman was at a loss to explain the poor performance other than the gelding may have got its tongue over the bit and choked down during the event. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any abnormalities.
