Steward Comment

Near 500m bumped by REMLAPS ROCK, which laid in. Rider questioned re tactics - stated instructed to obtain a handy position with cover. Added similar instructions were issued at previous start but on that occasion after beginning well and a lack of early speed the gelding settled outside the leader without being pressured. Trainer confirmed instructions. Explanations noted.
