JASINOVA - the start was delayed when JASINOVA required the assistance of a Starting Attendant to take up its position. A warning was placed on the mare's barrier manners. Over-raced middle stages. Trainer/Driver L Chin was questioned regarding his apparent variation of tactics in this mare's recent races. Dr Chin stated that he had been disappointed with the manner in which this runner had been failing to finish her races off in recent starts so elected to drive her with cover at her last start at Cambridge on 1 October in what was a small field, however she had only run on fairly over the final stages to finish in 4th place beaten 1.8 lengths. Dr Chin further stated that JASINOVA may have taken benefit from this race and had traveled well after finding the lead near the 2100m without having to work too hard in tonight's event. He further advised that it was his intention to drive the mare in a similar manner as tonight in the immediate future should circumstances permit. After considering the matter Stewards deemed no further action was warranted other than to note Dr Chin's comments.
