Lost all hope after a slow beginning and did finish off late for fifth 4.3L at Mornington Mdn-Sw over 2025m. Poised to bounce at the 400m however didn't have a lot left to give 7.2L at Stony Creek Mdn-Sw over 2100m.

Steward's Comments: Raced wide and without cover. Rdr said mount travelled well and as a result settled further forward than expected when caught wide. Added as he felt he would have had too make too much use of mount to cross he elected to race wide where his mount travelled comfortably.
