Horse Comment Venue Date
 
Race 1
Just As Loyal Slow into stride. When questioned regarding the horse’s improved performance, trainer M. Callaghan explained that at the gelding’s previous start it was first up following an 8-week let-up and over a shorter trip, which may have been unsuitable for the gelding. He thought that a fitness edge second up today and a step up in distance to 1350m, as well as a drop back in class, could have been to the gelding’s advantage today. Mr Callaghan further advised that he had only a small wager on the gelding and was somewhat surprised by the win today. Ipswich 27/07/2018

Thumbs Up Dwelt as the start was effected and lost ground. Jockey E. Ljung reported that her mount began only fairly and travelled comfortably throughout the run, however when placed under pressure from the 500m the mare ran on only fairly. Trainer K. Kemp advised that, in his opinion, the mare may have failed to run out the 1640m of this race, and he will now consider dropping the horse back in distance for its future starts.

Choice Son Raced wide without cover throughout. Raced wide without cover throughout. Stewards questioned App. N Morton in relation to her riding of the gelding in the home straight. App. Morton advised Stewards that the gelding, despite being wide, travelled comfortably during the event, however when placed under pressure immediately commenced to hang in and proved difficult to ride out. She added that the gelding has a history of laying in when placed under pressure in its races and for that reason is better suited when placed on the rail rather the asked to improve in the middle of the track as it was Roma 28/07/2018
