GOLD-FUN shifted out at the start and bumped RAINBOW CHIC. RAINBOW CHIC was then crowded for room a short distance later between GOLD-FUN and REWARDING HERO which was taken in by SECRET SHAM Passing the 1300 Metres, PACKING WHIZ commenced to prove very difficult to settle and got its head up on a number of occasions when being checked away from the heels of RAINBOW CHIC. Then passing the 900 Metres, PACKING WHIZ again had to be checked away from the heels of RAINBOW CHIC when it continued to prove difficult to settle. In the early part of the Straight, AMBITIOUS DRAGON got its head on the side and lay in and near the 250 Metres was momentarily held up when improving into tight running between GOLD-FUN and LORD SINCLAIR. AMBITIOUS DRAGON then continued to lay in under pressure over the concluding stages. A veterinary inspection of HANA’S GOAL immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. A veterinary inspection of PACKING WHIZ immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. The performance of PACKING WHIZ, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, PACKING WHIZ will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in an official barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. ABLE FRIEND and GOLD-FUN were sent for sampling.
