HARD CORE was nervous in the stalls, kicked the back gate, slow away and lost 1 length. In the concluding stages, LORD MARSHAL which was hanging in from the 500m, proving difficult to assist, and THE CAT were awkwardly placed between FALCON ROCK, which shifted out away from the crop, and CAPTAIN MARROONED, which rolled in marginally. GUN HILL over raced in the early and middle stages. Jockey Munger appeared before the Board and was questioned regarding his ride on GUN HILL. In this regard, he explained that at the 450m, this gelding had to switched in off the heels of SAMAR to continue his run and thereafter, was hanging in proving difficult to assist. Consequently, Jockey Munger had attempted to keep GUN HILL as balanced as possible which allowed this gelding to ultimately run on, despite being disappointed for a run on a number of occasions from the 200m to the finish. The Board noted the explanation of Jockey Munger which was corroborated by the patrol films of the race. HARD CORE shifted out to continue his run at the 300m. FALCON ROCK was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. An investigation will be opened into the gelding of AMBER TREE. Vet: GUN HILL - abnormal respiratory noise. THE CAT - speedy cut right hind fetlock.
