Hampered at start when tightened for room between RUMERON and MISS SEVERINA, both of which shifted ground. A short distance later steadied from heels of MISS SEVERINA. Upon straightening when shifting out to improve bumped HIGHTOWER.

Began awkwardly, shifted out and bumped WE BUILT THIS CITY. Rider questioned re performance - noted mare having won a maiden at previous start was up in class today. Added passing 600m obliged to ride mare along, at which point it failed to respond as anticipated. Further added approaching 200m obliged to shift out to secure clear running after which the mare finished race off fairly. Given these circumstances rider not overly disappointed with performance.
