RACE 2 – TOTE TASMANIA 3YO & UPWARDS MAIDEN PLATE – SET WEIGHTS – 1400 METRES

prior to the start of the race.

Samsonic was unable to muster early speed.

Ellopet was inclined to over-race in the early stages of the event.

RACE 3 – DERWENT PARK DEVELOPMENTS MAIDEN / CLASS 1 – 1600 METRES

Monalusive attempted to sit down prior to the start before being removed from its barrier stall and
undergoing a veterinary inspection the mare was subsequently passed fit to take its place in the field. The
Club’s veterinary surgeon reported that Monalusive was in season. Trainer John Blacker was advised that
Monalusive must barrier trial prior to racing due to the mares barrier manners.

As a result of this, the race was delayed five minutes.

inspection and was subsequently passed fit to take its place in the field.

Monalusive was slow into stride, missing the start by four lengths.

Rodd) resulting in that gelding being checked and losing its position. Stewards noted that Pirate ‘n’ Poet
was inclined to lay in prior to and during the incident. Jockey Hamer’s licence to ride in races was

ground when racing tight between Relentless Pursuit and Ladeto.

Life to the Full and Twenty Grand were inclined to over-race mid-race.

Approaching the 400 metres, Mystery Quest was disappointed for a run between Relentless Pursuit and
Loaded Owners which was inclined to lay out.
Jockey M Rodd (Mystery Quest) was reprimanded under AR 137(a) careless riding in that approaching
the 200 metres, he shifted ground inwards when insufficiently clear making contact with Ladeto which had
been carried out by Black Glennoel.

Shortly thereafter, Jockey L Smith (Heartbreak Kid) was reprimanded under AR 137(a) careless riding in
that he allowed his mount to shift ground inwards when insufficiently clear of Mystery Quest which had
obtained a tight run to its inside resulting in Mystery Quest being carried in on to Ladeto who in turn shifted
ground inwards in on to Black Glennoel which was checked and made contact with Moulin Rouge which
was also inconvenienced. In not taking more severe action, Stewards took into account the movement of
Mystery Quest and Black Glennoel prior to this incident.

Jockey B McCoull (Loaded Owners) reported that his mount was inclined to over-race and lay out
throughout the event.

position resulting in Ballack (NZ) and De Fine Lago being inconvenienced at the rear of the field.

bumping with Rathsallagh (NZ).

Rathsallagh (NZ) tired upon entering the home straight. Jockey G Boss stated that after missing the start,
and racing against its normal racing pattern, the mare failed to race to expectations. A post-race
veterinary inspection of Rathsallagh (NZ) revealed the mare to be lame in the near foreleg. Trainer Robert
Smerdon was advised that he must tender a veterinary certificate of soundness before Rathsallagh’s next
race start.

reveal any abnormalities.

Jockey C Williams (Bangerang Quikpic) stated that he had pressure throughout the event and as such the
gelding failed to run on.

Jockey D Dunn (De Fine Lago) reported that the gelding lost its off-side fore plate during the race.

A post-race veterinary inspection of Ista Kareem (NZ) revealed the gelding to have “the thumps” and with
