Midfield with the leaders in sight however had little to show in the finish 4.6L at Kembla Grange Cl1 over 1400m. Sat on the pace and loomed as a danger but could only fight on 2L at Kembla Grange Prov Cl1 over 1600m.

Steward's Comments: Rdr reported the gelding travelled comfortably in the early and middle stages, however, when placed under pressure in the home straight, failed to respond and was disappointing in its failure to finish the race off, and in his opinion it would be better suited over longer distances. A post-race vet exam did not reveal any abs.

Steward's Comments: When questioned regarding the tactics adopted and in respect to the mare racing more forward today, rider advised that as there was little pace in the race, and as the mare had over-raced previously, he was instructed to attempt to settle in the lead. Co-trainer generally, confirmed the instructions and was reminded of his obligation under the Rules to notify any change of tactics.

Steward's Comments: Shortly after the start was bumped, then from a wide barrier was shifted behind runners in the early stages. Rdr reported in his opinion the gelding did not handle the rain affected track. A post-race vet exam revealed no abnormalities. Co-tnr subsequently reported satisfaction with the post-race condition of the mare but advised it has now been spelled.

Steward's Comments: When questioned re settling further forward, rdr std he had no specific instructions other than to help the gelding begin as it has had a recent tendency to be slow away. He said for this reason after beginning only fairly he made some use the gelding to obtain a more favourable position in the first half of the field, and when caught wide in the early stages he allowed it to improve into a position outside the lead.
