Steward Comment

When questioned, App. T Brooker stated that she had been instructed to improve into the race passing the 600m and then shift wider to obtain clear running in the home straight. App. Brooker added that for this reason she elected to shift to the outside of NIGHTLY AIM upon straightening. App. Brooker further added that once obtaining that position she had difficulty riding the gelding out over the final 300m as it was inclined to lay in at the same time that NIGHTLY AIM was shifting out under pressure.

Slow to begin. Trainer G Cornish reported that the gelding returned to the enclosure with its tongue over the bit.
