Mr. Dawson could offer tangible reason and was disappointed with the performance. Trainer Chris Frisby advised that he was disappointed with the performance and had no tangible reason for the performance. A veterinary inspection revealed a slow post-race recovery. Stewards advised Mr. Frisby to monitor the condition of the filly and if anything came to light in the ensuing days to advise the stewards. Stewards noted the explanations.
