Steward Comment

Slow to begin. Trainer B Andrew was questioned regarding the improved performance, he stated that in his opinion he had expected a forward showing as he believed the horses most recent disappointing performance had been as a result of a step up in class.

Steward Comment

A Fancourt reported that her mount was disappointing, which she felt could be attributed to the gelding having a short back up from its most recent start. Post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be suffering the thumps. Trainer S Strazzieri advised Stewards that the horse will now be sent for a spell.
