Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the tactics adopted as the horse settled back in the field, apprentice J. Murphy indicated that from the wide barrier draw he had been instructed to try to obtain cover and it had not been his intention to settle as far back as he did, however was obliged to do so in order to obtain a position closer to the fence. He added his mount would have settled closer to the lead with a more favourable barrier, and would benefit from a step up in distance next start.

Slow begin. Bumped near the 1100m and became unbalanced. Near the 300m, whilst weakening, was placed in restricted room for a short distance.

Steward Comment

Jockey R. Stewart reported it had been his intention to lead, however was unable to muster sufficient speed and was forced to race wide for the majority of the race. Was obliged to shift out to avoid heels shortly after passing the 400m.
