Was bumped on jumping away. Raced ungenerously for a short distance leaving the 800m. Was forced wider on the track rounding the home turn by VO TREASURE, which shifted out to obtain clear running.

Steward Comment

Had to be momentarily steadied near the 800m when racing in restricted room to the inside of HORACIO, which shifted in. HEARTFELT QUEST then commenced to overrace and shifted out, racing 3 wide without cover for the remainder of the race.
