OFF THE EDGE - hampered and forced wider by an inside runner rounding the final bend. Stewards questioned driver A Edge regarding the tactics he adopted in the early stages when electing to shift inwards to race on the marker line. Mr Edge explained that the horse had previously disappointed when racing in the parked position so he elected to shift inwards to obtain cover.
