Steward Comment

Slow into stride and restrained from the wide barrier to obtain a position close to the rail at the rear of the field. When questioned regarding the tactics adopted, jockey J. Oliver advised that it was his intention to be in a midfield position with cover if possible, but after being moderately away and knowing that the gelding has a tendency to pull when not afforded cover, he elected to restrain towards the rear to obtain cover, and even after travelling a short distance with cover the gelding was inclined to race keenly in that position. He added that the gelding at recent starts has been

Disappointed for a run approaching the 200m between GOODONYA SONJA and WEBOUGHTAZOU, which laid out slightly, and then approaching the 100m, when a run appeared to present to the inside of GOODONYA SONJA, the gelding had a tendency to lay out from that point and apprentice Spinks was unable to secure the run that had presented itself and for a short distance in the run to the line was awkwardly placed at the heels of GOODONYA SONJA.

Steward Comment

Reared in the barriers, got its leg over the offside partition and became momentarily cast. The horse was removed from the barriers, examined by the veterinary surgeon and cleared to start. Bumped on jumping. Passing the 1000m, when racing keenly, had to be restrained from the heels of IGNITE THE LIGHT, which shifted in.
