  • Stipe Comment: Underwent a pre-race veterinary examination after being kicked behind the barriers, being passed suitable to race. Lay out shortly after leaving the barriers making contact with LOOSE KNICKERS and having to be steadied losing ground, then commenced to race ungenerously. Hampered when crowded near the 250 metres.
