RACE 3 – DONGES IGA PACE – 2100 metres

MY ULTIMATE KEVVIE – Improved three wide from the 2000 metres until obtaining the lead passing the 1400 metres. Stewards queried Driver Jackson Painting with regards to the colt commencing to hang out under pressure from the 500 metres. Mr Painting advised Stewards that the colt commenced to hang out severely once it commenced to tire from the 500 metres and the more he looked to restrain or steer the colt down the track the worse it hung up the track. Mr Painting further advised the colt was having its first run on the smaller track and may have resented having the murphy blind placed on its inside and he would look to make some gear adjustments before the colt returned to the races. A post-race veterinary examination of the colt failed to reveal any obvious abnormalities. After considering the explanation provided by Mr Painting, MY ULTIMATE KEVVIE was stood down until the completion of one requalifying trial.

Mr Painting advised Stewards the performance of the gelding was disappointing however he felt it was racing up in grade compared to when it finished 2^nd at Wagga at its most previous start. Mr Painting further advised that in his opinion the gelding didn’t appreciate the smaller Young track and is a gelding that races best when able to obtain the lead of the event. A post-race veterinary examination of the gelding failed to reveal any obvious abnormalities. After considering the recent record of the gelding, a warning was issued.

BRACKEN WARRIOR – Stewards questioned Driver Blake Jones with regards to the performance of the gelding which tired over the concluding stages of the event to finish in 10^th placing beaten 62 metres. Mr Jones advised Stewards the gelding was disappointing but in his opinion did not handle the tight Young circuit when hanging in around the bends. Mr Jones further advised Stewards that he would be advising Trainer Corey Parker that the gelding should be kept racing on the bigger circuits. A post-race veterinary examination of the gelding failed to reveal any obvious abnormalities. After considering the recent record of the gelding, a warning was issued.

RACE 6 – QUAYLE MILLING PACE – 1720 metres

EN PARANT SUR – Stewards questioned Driver Jack Chapple with regards to the tactics he adopted in the early stages of the event whereby he elected to hold the lead until a point passing the 1200 metres when he surrendered to BOLZANO NZ. Mr Chapple advised Stewards that he was provided instructions by Trainer Ben Settree to hold the lead if he could and he felt once the gelding began reasonably well he was able to drive the runner forward into the first turn and hold his position, however soon after Ms Turnbull on BOLZANO NZ commenced to challenge for the lead despite him making it clear that he was intent on holding his position. Mr Chapple further advised that Ms Turnbull further challenged his runner to a point passing the 1200 metres whereby he determined that the tempo of the event had been fast and elected to surrender to BOLZANO NZ. After considering the explanation provided by Mr Chapple Stewards believed he had erred in his decision to maintain his position in the lead despite recognising the fast early tempo and should have surrendered to BOLZANO NZ soon after entry to the back straight, a runner of which he acknowledged had superior form and as a result he was cautioned under Rule 149(2). A post-race veterinary examination of the gelding failed to reveal any obvious abnormalities.

In not taking the matter any further, Stewards acknowledged the evidence of Driver Jett Turnbull that he was looking to obtain cover from a runner when improving in the three wide position and was therefore happy to restrain his runner to the helmet of MIGHTY ATOM to obtain some cover in the run home.
