Steward Comment

Rider elected to improve 3 wide approaching the 900m, however, shortly thereafter was forced wider on the track when ZOFGOLD elected to improve. Placed under hard riding and inclined to lay out near the 150m before being corrected by its rider.

Steward Comment

Near the home turn, improved onto the heels of the tiring BON HENRY and obliged to steady. When asked to comment on the performance, App. A. Thompson stated that it was his intention to lead or race handy. After beginning fairly, shortly thereafter was crossed by two runners and settled in a midfield rails position. The gelding which performed poorly and tired noticeably over the concluding stages, underwent a post-race veterinary examination which revealed no apparent abnormalities.

Steward Comment

Poor performance. Trainer N. Rogers indicated that it was his preferred option to immediately retire the gelding. Stewards in assessing todays poor performance, also intend to place a TAB bar on the gelding.
