Apprentice T. Williams was fined $200 for using her whip more than 5 times prior to the 100m. Stewards questioned trainer M. Mair in regards to the improved performance. He indicated he was not entirely disappointed with the horse’s most recent start, indicating that after racing in the lead the horse had fought on strongly in the home straight. He also added that at the horse’s other 2 starts this preparation it was not suited to the sand track at Gympie and on 14 April did not race well on the very heavy surface at Kilcoy on 2 May. He added that he had expected a forward showing in today’s

Change of tactics. Connections advised that the gelding would attempt to be ridden with cover if circumstances permit. The horse was ridden accordingly. Slow to begin.

Was required to reweigh after trainer M. Costa when saddling the horse found jockey M. Cahill had weighed without stirrups. Jockey M. Cahill was issued with a reprimand. Stewards took into account jockey Cahill’s good record in relation to this rule.

Held up from approaching the 500m and had to be steadied from heels near the 400m when disappointed for clear running. Again obliged to steady when disappointed for clear running near the 200m before shifting out in an attempt to secure clear running shortly afterwards.
