GOOD LUCK FRIEND lifted its front feet off the ground as the start was effected and then stumbled and in doing so shifted out and bumped BLAZE WARRIOR.
From wide barriers, CIRCUIT THREE and TEMPEST EXPRESS were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
Approaching the 900 Metres, TSAR was left racing wide and without cover.
At the 400 Metres, TSAR was momentarily crowded for room between BLAZE WARRIOR which shifted in and GOOD LUCK FRIEND which, when shifting to the outside of SEATTLE CHOICE to obtain clear running, was then shifted out away from the heels of that horse which drifted out under pressure. After this, GOOD LUCK FRIEND raced tight between BLAZE WARRIOR and SEATTLE CHOICE which continued to shift out marginally.
After the 150 Metres, BLAZE WARRIOR was directed out to relieve the crowding to GOOD LUCK FRIEND to its inside.
Near the 50 Metres, GOOD LUCK FRIEND was eased away from the heels of BLAZE WARRIOR (J Moreira) which shifted in. J Moreira was advised to exercise more care in similar circumstances.
A veterinary inspection of TSAR and ROMAN TURBO immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
PACKING VICTORY and BEAUTY JOY were sent for sampling.
