LUCKY MAN

Raced in touch, sticking to task but lacked speed to challenge when short of room 150m out to 50m out.

Stayed close enough in the group chasing leaders, quickly beaten turning home and dropped away. (Blood in trachea / continuous epiglottic entrapment.)

Began only fairly from gate 1, raced prominently on the middle track, kept on well until approaching 100M, weakened gradually final 50M.

Began well, raced behind midfield on the stands' side, 3 to 4 lengths back in the middle stages, passed some tired runners final 400M.

Crowded start, raced slightly behind midfield on the outside, 5 lengths back, very wide turning in, made no progress in straight.

Taken from the widest draw, raced at rear on outer, very wide turning in, passed some tired runners in straight.

Made contact at start, raced 2 wide towards rear, commenced move approaching 800M, very wide on turn, made some headway in straight.

Out with rest, positioned 2 lengths behind the leader on the inside, easy run to turn, kept on well early in straight, peaked 150M, ran on evenly to the line.

Began awkwardly and made contact, raced 3 wide at rear, 6-1/2L back turning in, made no impression in straight. (See Racing Incidents.)

Jumped well from gate 12, sent forward to take the lead, enjoyed the easy lead in the middle stage, kicked clear early in straight, kept on very well to the line and scored.

Moderately away, raced better than midfield on the inside, saved ground on turn, peaked early in straight, ran on evenly to the line.

Jumped only fairly, raced 2 wide behind midfield, angled out 500M, 5-1/2L back turning in, made good progress in straight to be nearest on line.

Moderately away from gate 1, raced better than midfield on the inside, 1-1/2L back turning in, showed good response in straight, took the lead 150M, kept on well to the line and scored.

Jumped with them, raced in midfield on the inside, 2 wide on turn, made some progress early in straight, not enough room 150M to 50M, ran on evenly thereafter.

Out in line, raced 3 wide better than midfield, 1 to 2 lengths back turning in, peaked early in straight, weakened final furlong. (See Racing Incidents.)

Out with rest, raced 2 wide behind midfield in the early stages, found rail near 900M, saved ground on turn, failed to close off in straight. (Mucus.) (See Racing Incidents.)

Taken back from a wide draw, raced towards rear on the outside, 5 lengths back on turn, very wide into straight, finished off well to make frame without threatening.

Began fairly from the widest draw, raced 3 wide with no cover, 2 lengths or so back, similar position on turn, peaked early in straight, weakened gradually final 100M.

Taken back to race 2 wide behind midfield, wider 400M, failed to close off in straight. (Blood in trachea.) (See Racing Incidents.)
