Steward Comment

Improved into the race four wide after passing the 800m. When asked to comment on the perceived improved performance of the gelding, trainer P. Nipperess stated that at its most recent start the horse was ridden off the speed and when asked to improve into the race, it had runners to its outside, which he believed the gelding may resent. Today, with a step up in distance and on a track on which the gelding has performed creditably previously, he expected a more forward showing. He added that, consistent with previous instructions to riders, the gelding does not appreciate racing inside other r

Steward Comment

Raced three wide without cover after passing the 800m. Slightly inconvenienced approaching the 600m when LI’L RODGE shifted out. The veterinary surgeon reported that the colt had sustained a small laceration to the near hind cannon.

Steward Comment

Had to be steadied away from the heels of HOOVESGOTCHA approaching the winning post on the first occasion when that runner laid in away from KIJITO. Again had to be steadied from the heels of HOOVESGOTCHA passing the 1600m and made the turn out of the home straight awkwardly. Trainer B. Currie’s stable representative reported that the colt may have got its tongue over the bit during the race.

Steward Comment

After racing in a prominent position throughout the gelding commenced to weaken after passing the 600m and finished in a rearward position. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the horse to be suffering from cardiac arrhythmia. Connections were advised that before racing again the horse must trial satisfactorily and a veterinary clearance, including the results of an ECG, must be produced.
