THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED:
a) When questioned regarding the change of tactics on IMPERSONATION (K de Melo), Trainer M N Houdalakis explained to the Board that in this filly's runs on 6 December 2022 and 9 January 2023, she had raced too keenly and without cover which had resulted in this filly fading out in these races.

When adopting these tactics, IMPERSONATION had sat further back than he had originally planned.
