Hopwood RACE 1 : BETFAIR / SABOIS DISTANCE MAIDEN PLATE metres RAWLAW was withdrawn by Stewards at am owing to float difficulties, which resulted in its extremely late arrival on course. TWO TIMING (NZ) (J. Matthews) jumped away awkwardly and shifted in onto ROLLING DALE (C. Lever), which was hampered and forced to lose its position when tightened onto SEPTEMBER RAIN (K. Dyson). MR GLITTER (J. Potter) jumped away awkwardly. PENN STATION (NZ) (C. Lindop) raced keenly in the early and middle stages of the event. MR GLITTER (J. Potter) hung out severely approaching the winning post on the first occasion, losing contact with the remainder of the field. PENN STATION (NZ) (C. Lindop) raced wide without cover from the vicinity of the 1000 metres. BURGUNDY NOTES (NZ) (P.

Lindop) rolled in onto TWO TIMING (NZ) (J. Matthews) taking that gelding in onto BURGUNDY NOTES (NZ) (P. Gatt), which was forced to race in restricted room to the finish. J. Potter, the rider of MR GLITTER, reported his mount had hung out severely from the winning post on the first occasion until the vicinity of the 1200 metres, after which time he was able to control the gelding, however, in his opinion it continued to have an inclination to lay out. Mr. S. Paynter, the Trainer of MR GLITTER, was advised the gelding would be required to perform to the Stewards satisfaction in an Official Barrier Trial prior to accepting for a future race.

2 RACE 1 : BETFAIR / SABOIS DISTANCE MAIDEN PLATE metres (Cont d) P. Gatt, the rider of BURGUNDY NOTES (NZ), explained that after becoming disappointed for a run between the heels of SHIAWASE (D. Tourneur) and ROLLING DALE (C. Lever) shortly after entering the straight, he considered his only option was to shift in and attempt a tight run to the inside of SHIAWASE, which he believed had presented itself, however, after shifting to attempt the run he was of the belief that SHIAWASE had rolled in and he was unable to persist and was held up until inside the 200 metres. SEPTEMBER RAIN was examined by the Club s Veterinary Surgeon who reported the filly to be lame in the near foreleg. Mr. P. Barns, the Trainer of SEPTEMBER RAIN, was advised a Veterinary Certificate of Fitness would be required prior to presenting for a future trial or race. RACE 2 : BETFAIR / SABOIS MAIDEN PLATE metres Mr. S. Oxlade, the Trainer of ALUMINA, was fined $50 under ARR.59A for failing to produce the Thoroughbred Identification Card for the mare. As Stewards were able to confirm the identity of ALUMINA from computer records held by them, the mare was permitted to start. The start of this race was delayed approximately two minutes owing to CAPTAIN KEV, which was untractable en route to and behind the barriers, dislodging its rider J. Frew and galloping riderless for several hundred metres prior to being recaptured. Acting in consultation with the Veterinary Surgeon, Stewards withdrew CAPTAIN KEV at pm. Ms. R. Day, the Trainer of CAPTAIN KEV, was advised the gelding would be required to prove tractable en route to and behind the barriers in an Official Barrier Trial prior to accepting for a future race. BEL HEIR (J. Matthews) and SUMMER WITH ROSIE (NZ) (K. Dyson) were slow to begin. In the vicinity of the 1000 metres BELLE S STAR (M. Neilson) had to ease momentarily off REEL SPIRIT (L.

Herrmann) was momentarily held up on the heels of BELLE S STAR (M. Neilson). In the vicinity of the 250 metres TUREEN (K. Bishop) improved onto the heels of REEL SPIRIT (L. Stojakovic) and shifted out abruptly onto ALUMINA (J. Potter) taking that mare out onto BEL HEIR (J. Matthews), which was inconvenienced when obliged to alter course. K. Bishop was reminded of her obligations when shifting ground in future. LUNAR RHYTHM, which performed poorly, was examined by the Club s Veterinary Surgeon who reported no visible abnormalities.

Westover, the rider of COUNT CHEVAL, which performed below expectations, explained that after jumping well the gelding commenced to hang out in the vicinity of the 900 metres and for this reason he was forced to race wider on the track. He added the gelding continued to lay out throughout the event and he had placed COUNT CHEVAL under pressure from the vicinity of the 500 metres, however, it failed to respond to his riding and finished the race off poorly. COUNT CHEVAL was examined by the Club s Veterinary Surgeon who reported a higher than expected heart rate and a slow recovery. RACE 4 : BETFAIR MAIDEN PLATE metres WE THREE KINGS (A. Patterson) was slow to begin. Rounding the turn in the vicinity of the 1100 metres TERRINE (K. Bishop) shifted out onto BARGAIN BUY (C.

Tyndall) made the turn in the vicinity of the 800 metres awkwardly. DARK KNIGHT (S. Westover) was inclined to lay in under pressure in the straight and in the vicinity of the 100 metres shifted in onto SNAPERTUDE (E. Brooks), which had to ease momentarily and alter course. L. Stojakovic, the rider of PENDANCE (NZ), reported the mare hung out rounding the home turn. RACE 6 : BETFAIR / SABOIS FILLIES & MARES RATING 0-68 HANDICAP 1200 metres WYARA MISS (A.

Gatt) was hampered by ETERNAL REIGN (T. Pannell), which laid in onto that filly. T. Pannell reported ETERNAL REIGN laid in throughout the event. ETERNAL REIGN was examined by the Club s Veterinary Surgeon who reported a lower than expected heart rate. C. Lindop, the rider of OTTANA, explained the gelding was off the bit in the vicinity of the 600 metres and for that reason she had switched her whip to the left hand in an attempt to have it grab the bit. She stated that OTTANA responded to her riding and improved and although the gelding was laying in slightly, had elected to take an option to attempt a tight run between FINAL COMMAND (S. Price) and SIERRA SKIES (A. Herrmann), however, this run had closed and she was unable to ease and obtain clear ground until the vicinity of the 100 metres. FINAL COMMAND was examined by the Club s Veterinary Surgeon who reported the gelding to be lame in the near hind leg. First Aid was administered. Mr. J.

5 RACE 8 : MICK VERCO MEMORIAL RATING 0-68 HANDICAP metres (Cont d) P. Gatt, the rider of TOLDEROL TEAPARTY, explained he was comfortable with his mount s position in the early and middle stages of the event, however, was slightly concerned with the gelding s breathing. He asked TOLDEROL TEAPARTY for an effort in the vicinity of the 600 metres, however, it failed to respond to his riding and he became more concerned with its breathing. Shortly after entering the straight he was of the opinion TOLDEROL TEAPARTY had lost its action and for this reason he had eased the gelding out of the event. TOLDEROL TEAPARTY was examined by the Club s Veterinary Surgeon who reported excess upper respiratory noise. Mr. G.
