Steward Comment

After breaking away from the lead pony in the saddling enclosure, underwent a veterinary examination on arrival at the barriers and cleared to start. Began awkwardly. Rider M McGillivray reported his saddle shifted back during the event placing him at some disadvantage. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a minor laceration to the near hind fetlock.

Steward Comment

Near the 600 metres steadied from the heels of WITH EDGE. When asked to comment on his riding over the final 200 metres, B El Issa stated he was of the view that the gelding resented the whip and was inclined to bound and then changed strides on a number of occasions approaching the finish line rode and therefore elected to ride hands and heels over the concluding stages. Stewards noted the explanation of B El Issa.

Steward Comment

Raced very keenly in the early stages and approaching the 700 metres became awkwardly placed at the heels of RELIABLE RUBY which shifted in. M McGillivray, rider of RELIABLE RUBY, was advised to exercise greater care. A short distance later, when over-racing, was shifted wider on the track.
