Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the improved performance, trainer S. O'Dea advised he had schooled gelding over the hurdles in preparation for this event and this, together with the weight drop from 60 kilograms to 54 kilograms, were contributing factors in the winning performance today.

Had to be steadied when tightened for room passing the 1400m. Jockey M. Cahill, rider of AKAVOROUN, was reprimanded and advised to be fully clear when shifting ground.

Steward Comment

Jockey M. Cahill reported at scale the step up in distance and the increase in weight for the gelding may have contributed to the poor performance. A post race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be stepping short in the off foreleg.
