Riccarton, race 5 #13 Swissky. Consistent performances throughout career though did put in a bad one when winning 3 starts ago.
Stipe Comment: Began awkwardly losing ground. (blinkers on). First start.
Stipe Comment: Hampered on jumping away losing ground. (blinkers off)
Stipe Comment: Had difficulty obtaining clear running early in the final straight.
Stipe Comment: Lay inwards throughout the run home and could not be ridden to full advantage.
Stipe Comment: Made contact with ITS TOO LATE passing the 200 metres and shifted in under pressure inconveniencing ITS TOO LATE passing the 125 metres. (Won this race - blinkers on)
Stipe Comment: Raced keenly in lead, hampered passing 250m when weakening rider being of opinion may have held breath (must have seen Mr T's posts)
Stipe Comment: Over raced early stages, contacted 400m (side winkers on first time)
Stepping up from B65, 4yo geldings go well this time of year. Side winkers still on an 'indicator'? Must be the one surely?
