Steward Comment

Approaching the 1500m, commenced to race keenly on the heels of TOPTIMISTIC. Momentarily held up rounding the home turn on the heels of the weakening TOPTIMISTIC, before shifting wider to obtain clear running. Laid in under pressure over the concluding stages.

Steward Comment

When questioned regarding the tactics adopted on the mare, Apprentice B Wheeler reported that when the pace of the race slackened, he allowed his mount to stride forward and take up a leading position, subsequently settling further forward than may have been expected. Became under pressure rounding the home turn.
