FEAR AND FAITH - raced wide early. Held up early in the run home. When questioned regarding his tactics adopted during the running, trainer/driver J Morrison advised the mare had hung outwards in the early stages so he elected to restrain to the rear of the field from a wide draw. Mr Morrison added that the horse is best saved for one run as it had previously proved disappointing when improving wide through the middle stages and after the three wide line failed to become established along the back straight on the final occasion, he elected to shift inwards to save ground rounding the final bend and was pleased with the manner in which the mare had finished the race off. After considering Mr Morrison's explanation, Stewards took the matter no further.
