Steward Comment

Approaching the 900m had to be steadied away from the heels of SUPERSONIC BOOM, which shifted in. S. Cormack, the rider of SUPERSONIC BOOM, was advised to show greater care when shifting ground. Improved to the inside of the heels of SUPERSONIC BOOM passing the 600m and had to be restrained. Had some difficulty securing clear running rounding the home turn and in the early part of the home straight.

Had to be restrained passing the 600m when tightened for room between ARTERIAL and MICK THE HAT, which shifted out when not fully clear. Apprentice J. Murphy, the rider of MICK THE HAT, was reprimanded.
