FRANCO MAREK - cast a shoe in the preliminary which was unable to be located with driver J Morrison electing to race the gelding with only one front shoe. Broke at the start losing ground. Raced wide early. When questioned regarding the performance driver J Morrison advised the gelding had been unsuited to the tempo of the race however had been pleased with the manner in which the horse had finished the race off.
