Settled back, no impact 15.3L at Flemington Qlty over 2500m. Ran home strongly for second over the final 400m and just missed by a narrow margin 0.1L at Geelong Bm64 over 1700m. Is a second-up winner.

Steward's Comments: Slow to begin. R: been asked to ride the gelding with cover. After being slow to begin, mount settled towards the rear of the field. Added from the 500m, had been intention to trail the favourite however when the tempo quickened mount came under pressure and elected to save ground and maintain position rather than shifting out. Pleased with the manner in which mount finished the race off.

Steward's Comments: Raced wide without cover throughout. Eased down over the final 300m. Rider reported that although his mount failed to race genuinely, he was of the opinion that the gelding failed to handle the heavy track conditions.

Steward's Comments: Raced wide in the early stages before striding to settle outside the leader near the 1400m. Rider reported racing wide in the early stages was detrimental to the gelding’s performance. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be lame in the right hind.

Steward's Comments: When questioned the rider stated he was instructed to take up a forward position today. He added that after beginning well, and when his mount was caught wide in the early stages, he allowed it to stride forward to race outside the leader.
