EDEN ON THE BAY jumped awkwardly, losing one length and thereafter was slow into stride. ZORA jumped awkwardly inwards. NATURAL BLONDE jumped awkwardly, losing one length and thereafter was slow into stride. When questioned regarding the improved performance from COMMAND CHI (AUS) today compared to the filly's previous run on 24 September 2014, at Durbanville, over 1600m, when she finished 21.00 lengths behind the winner, Trainer Hodgson told the Stewards that in his opinion the filly has shown a lack of form at Durbanville Racecourse and in her last start at Durbanville she failed to run on in the home straight despite being fitted with blinkers for the first time. The Stewards reviewed the filly's previous run and was satisfied the filly had been ridden and raced on merit and further noted that the 4th placed horse was 13 lengths behind the winner. Mr Hodgson has been instructed not to race this filly at Durbanville and not to race the filly equipped with blinkers in her future starts. Jockey Cormack's right foot slipped out of the stirrup iron in the latter stages, which resulted in him being unable to fully assist SO SUSPECT for a number of strides. COMMAND CHI (AUS) was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Scratched: SOVEREIGN SPEECH - no suitable jockey.
