  • Stipe Comment: Over-raced middle stages due to the lack of tempo. Lost contact with field when the pace increased passing the 1200 metres. Questioned regarding performance rider advised the mare was left flat footed when pace increased and not suited to the changing tempo in race. A post-race vet exam revealed no obvious abnormalities.
