Coastal Boy Laid in under pressure in the home straight. Stewards asked jockey L. Tarrant to comment on the positioning and performance of the colt, which had been anticipated as the leader. He indicated it had been his intention to ride in a more forward position, however the horse began awkwardly and shifted in and as a result was obliged to settle further back in the field than he would have liked. He added the horse overraced and raced greenly in the early stages and he attributed this to having settled in a midfield position and also having the addition of blinkers as a gear change today.
