From the wide barrier restrained shortly after to a rearward position closer to the fence. Disappointed for a run and obliged to steady near the 300 metres and then had difficulty securing clear running until near the 200 metres.

Fractious after being loaded into the barriers. Slow to begin and then checked on jumping and lost ground. Obliged to alter course to avoid heels near the 300 metres and then was disappointed for a run and had to be steadied near the 150 metres.

Following the event the rider was of the opinion the mare may be in season. A post-race veterinary examination of CENTREFIRE revealed symptoms of the thumps.

Steward Comment

Raced three wide throughout without cover. Rider L Kilner reported she had been instructed to attempt to lead however after being caught three wide the gelding weakened when placed under pressure in the home straight. A post-race veterinary examination revealed lameness in the off-hind leg. Co-trainer T Sears was advised DEVIL’S TEMPTATION would require a veterinary clearance prior to its next race start.

Steward Comment

Rider L Cassidy reported instructions were to lead on the fence however when unable to do so was obliged to race outside the leader which in his opinion had a detrimental effect on the overall performance of the gelding. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
