Thoroughbred Toowoomba Sat 11 Apr 2020 Race 5

Steward Comment

Raced 3 wide without cover throughout. Hung in approaching the 300m despite the efforts of its rider which placed its rider at some disadvantage until passing the 150m where it was able to shift out around the heels of ABB ROY to improve. Trainer M. Boland advised that he may experiment with some gear changes for the horse’s future starts.

Hampered on jumping away. After passing the 1000m, the gelding was ridden forward to obtain the lead passing the 800m.

Steward Comment

Slow to begin. Held up for clear running and was steadied away from the heels of SIR BAM which shifted out to improve passing the 400m. Bumped with HIDDEN SECRET and was held up for clear running passing the 300m. Improved onto the heels of INCHING CLOSER and was checked approaching the 100m, and went to the line without being fully tested.

Steward Comment

Raced in restricted room between SIR BAM and INCHING CLOSER between the 900m and the 700m.

Steward Comment

Disappointed for a run to the inside of TAVI MCBRIDE approaching the 300m and had to be eased, and shifted wider on the track to obtain clear running.

Steward Comment

Raced in restricted room to the inside of MASTER OF NORWAY after passing the 900m when that runner was bumped and taken in by INCHING CLOSER.

Steward Comment

Raced 3 wide with cover throughout. Bumped and forced wider on the track passing the 400m when MASTER OF NORWAY shifted out to improve.

After arriving on course late due to transport difficulties, the filly underwent a veterinary examination and was cleared to start. Began awkwardly and shifted in. Laid in whilst weakening passing the 400m and, in doing so, crowded GLENBAWNS DUTCHESS.
