Steward Comment

Jockey S Bogenhuber reported at scale that her mount was inclined to hang out for the majority of the event and proved difficult to ride. Connections were advised that a warning would be placed on the gelding’s racing manners. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any apparent abnormalities at the time of examination.

Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the performance which was below market expectations, Jockey C Whiteley explained that the mare travelled well throughout, however, was disappointing in its finishing effort. He noted that the mare’s recent first up form has been disappointing which may have explained today’s performance.
