Titahi Bay Badly crowded on jumping. Rider reported that she intended on obtaining a prominent position, however, after sustaining heavy interference at the start her mount was obliged to settle at the rear of the field where her mount did not appreciate the kickback from the dirt racing surface. She added that passing the 800m she made contact with inside running rail and as a result her mount became unbalanced. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
