Race 1
Nicosmile Was steadied near the 1200m. When qtd re the disappointing performance, rider std that she was instructed from a wide barrier to restrain and obtain a position with cover in the early stages. She said that the gelding travelled well until near the 1200m, where it commenced to give ground and was very disappointing in the way in which it closed out the race. She added that in her opinion the gelding was not suited by the tight nature of the Gilgandra track and would be better suited up in distance on a bigger track. A post race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be slow to recover. Gilgandra 01/06/2019
