Steward Comment

Raced wide without cover throughout. Trainer questioned re seemingly improved performance - noted two starts ago the mare was only beaten 1.9 lengths. Added at its last start was held up rounding the home turn and again over concluding stages to be beaten only 2.4 lengths on that occasion. As such he was not overly surprised by today’s performance.

Slow to begin and then checked when severely tightened for room at the start. Raced wide early before obtaining the lead near the 900m.

Held up approaching home turn and leaving the 150m had difficulty securing clear running. Rider reported in his opinion the gelding did not appreciate today’s firm track.
