Steward Comment

When questioned by Stewards questioned regarding the seemingly improved performance, trainer’s representative M. Jeynes advised that the gelding was fourth up from a spell today and was therefore at is optimum fitness. He added that the stable had also increased the gelding’s volume of trackwork which he felt was also a contributing factor to the horse’s improved performance today. Stewards noted the explanation.

Steward Comment

Due to the slow tempo, Apprentice H. Phillips permitted her mount to stride forward to obtain the leading position passing the 1000m and, as a result, settled further forward than anticipated.

Steward Comment

Jockey Beau Appo reported that, in his opinion, the mare was not suited to today’s firm racing surface and was reluctant to stretch out over the concluding stages.
