  • Stipe Comment: Rider lost the use of his right stirrup iron when jumping out of the barriers, taking some time to regain it. Eased down over the final 150 metres when well beaten. Rider advised that the gelding would be better suited to a left-handed track. Underwent a post-race veterinary examination which revealed no abnormalities.
