Steward Comment

Change of tactics. To be ridden with cover. Ridden accordingly. Stewards questioned trainer K Loy in relation to seemingly improved performance. Ms Loy advised that as the gelding was only having its third start in her care, she was unable to explain the horses form prior to these runs. She added that having now learnt the mannerisms of the horse she had modified the manner in which she had been training the horse at trackwork and based on these changes was hopeful of an improved performance in today’s event. Stewards noted the explanation.

Steward Comment

Raced keenly in the early and middle stages. Held up approaching and rounding the home turn. When attempting to secure clear running to the inside of DER SIEGER in a run that momentarily presented rounding the home turn, became held up for the majority of the home straight when awkwardly placed to the inside of the heels of that runner when it shifted in marginally.

Steward Comment

Began awkwardly. Hung out throughout the event and as a consequence shifted wider on the track near the 1200m and as a result raced wide without cover for the remainder. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be short striding in both fore legs.
