Incident Report
Jumped only fairly and then bumped with SPECIAL HEDGE shortly after. Held up for clear running on the Home Turn and near the 350 Metres was eased when placed in restricted room between SPECIAL HEDGE and KASA PAPA which shifted out before being corrected by its rider.

Made contact at start, positioned 1-1/2L behind the leader on rail, same position on turn, showed limited response early in straight, weakened final furlong.

Incident Report
Approaching the 200 Metres was contacted by SUPREME AGILITY and became unbalanced as SUPREME AGILITY (J Orman) improved into a doubtful run between KASA PAPA and YOUNG BRILLIANT which was giving ground. J Orman was severely reprimanded and advised he must ensure that there is sufficient racing room when improving into runs. When questioned A Badel stated that as he entered the Home Straight he was obliged to correct his mount when he received a call from the rider of SOARING BRONCO who was positioned to his outside. He said a short distance later he endeavoured to secure clear running between GALE SAGA and YOUNG BRILLIANT but when his mount did not respond to his efforts to improve it then was crowded for room when SUPREME AGILITY shifted out approaching the 200 Metres.
