Barachiel Severely checked when tightened for room near the 1100m. At a subsequent inquiry it was established that CRYSTAL AMOR, after being crossed by CORNROW near the 1200m, began to race very fiercely and despite the efforts of its rider to restrain that horse it continued to improve to the inside of CORNROW where there was insufficient room, which resulted in CORAL BAY, near the 1100m, being taken across the rightful running of BARACHIEL and that runner being checked. As stewards were of the view that the racing manners of CRYSTAL AMOR were a major contributor to this incident, no further action was Eagle Farm 23/02/2019
Jack Lancaster When questioned in relation to riding tactics particularly between the 1000m and 700m App. stated approaching the 800m she had elected to allow the gelding to stride to a 3 wide position outside the leaders rather than restrain and take a sit with cover, being mindful of the 62 kilogram impost and as the horse was traveling comfortably. Stewards advised they were of the opinion the better option would have been to restrain and hold a position one off the fence behind the leaders and that better judgement would be expected going forward.
