Slow to begin. Bumped heavily near the 400m and became unbalanced when NONCHALANTE shifted in to improve to the inside of SILVER FOX. Beau Appo, the rider of NONCHALANTE, was reprimanded for this incident and advised to exercise greater care in similar circumstances.

Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the horse’s performance, which was below market expectations, M. Cahill could offer no tangible explanation. Trainer D. Bell Stated that the gelding’s recent form has been inconsistent and feels that the gelding may be looking for a short spell. Stewards noted both explanations. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities. A swab sample was taken.

Steward Comment

Began awkwardly and made contact with the inside barrier partition. When questioned regarding the horse’s disappointing performance, B. Stewart stated that he attempted to obtain the lead, however when runners to his inside improved, he was caught racing three wide, which on the heavy track he was content to do. He added that once rounding the home turn when he placed his mount under pressure it failed to respond and therefore he was inclined to desist with pressuring his mount for the remainder of the event. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
