Steward Comment

Hampered soon after the start having to be steadied. Held up for clear running rounding the home turn and in the early stages of the home straight. Disappointed for a run passing the 100m having to be eased and shifted wider to obtain clear running.

Raced wide for the majority. When tiring was tightened for racing room and checked near the 250m when DARING BELLE shifted out marginally making contact with VANTAN EXPRESS causing it to become unbalanced and lose its position.
