Brk hopelessly early,out of action
LINCOLN MAREE - fractious and required the assistance of an Attendant prior to the start. Back from position throughout the score up then broke shortly after the start before shifting down onto the infield losing all chance. Stood down to trial from a mobile to the satisfaction of Stewards on one occasion prior to resuming. Trainer R Green advised the filly would be turned out for a spell.

LINCOLN'S SPICE - paced roughly rounding the first turn having to be steadied. Weakened leaving the final turn. When questioned regarding the performance Driver Z Butcher stated that the filly had been required to work hard to find the lead and was then taken on down the back straight the final time which took its toll.
