Stewards questioned Jockey A Spradau over the performance of Da Kine Mull and he stated that he was to endeavour today to ride off the pace which he did but the gelding showed a disliking to the sand track which was Da Kine Mull’s first start at Mount Isa. He further stated that the gelding was reluctant to go forward from the 600 mtrs despite his urging, and was never on the bit and failed to run on and was very disappointing. He would suggest to the trainer that Da Kine Mull take the sit if possible closer to the pace in future.
