  • Stipe Comment: Over raced when in front throughout, hung outwards rounding the home turn and had little left at the finish. Rider reported that after over racing and hanging throughout, the filly had failed to see out the 1200 metres. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a loose baby incisor and a slow recovery rate. Trainer Mr. M Breslin advised Stewards, that on Monday 13 May PLEASING underwent a veterinary examination which included blood test with no abnormalities being detected. M Breslin further advised it is his intention to continue on with the filly’s current preparation.
