When questioned as to the somewhat disappointing performance of LILLABIDDY, J. Byrne stated that whilst the horse overraced for a short distance in the early stages, it then travelled well until near the 600m where the horse then raced under pressure and failed to respond to his riding from that point onward. He was of the opinion that the horse had stepped up in class today from racing against its own sex in recent starts and felt that this class rise may have had some effect.
