Steward Comment

Raced in restricted room approaching the 1100m between ULTIMATE RING and LASHONI, which had improved into a narrow run to the inside, and shortly thereafter was restrained to obtain a position closer to the rail with cover. Held up rounding the home turn.

Had to be checked passing the 650m to avoid the heels of SET THE BAR HIGH and was further hampered by LASHONI, which shifted out to improve.

Slow to begin. Crowded for room passing the 1200m and brushed the running rail.

Steward Comment

When asked to comment, B. Stewart advised that it was his intention to ride the horse in a similar manner to that at recent starts and save it for a late short sprint, however, when SET THE BAR HIGH broke down passing the 700m and he elected to shift out to avoid interference, his mount was left racing without cover earlier than he would have liked. He added that the mare loomed up rounding the home turn, however, over the concluding stages proved disappointing. He further stated that having the mare exposed much more earlier than he would have liked may have had a bearing on its finishing eff

Steward Comment

Faltered passing the 700m and was eased wider on the course by its rider before being retired from the event. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to have sustained an injury to the off fore tendon and the horse was treated and bandaged on course prior to leaving. Trainer G. Duncan was advised that the gelding will require a veterinary clearance prior to racing again.
