Trainer Danny Williams today reported to Racing NSW Stewards that following last Saturday’s SERA Country Championships Qualifier conducted at Goulburn Racecourse, Don’t Give A Damn had a slow recovery rate.
He further reported that an examination of Don’t Give A Damn conducted by his stable veterinarian today, including lameness tests and an endoscopic examination, did not reveal any abnormality. Mr Williams undertook to report the results of blood tests.
Mr Williams was advised by Stewards that in light of Saturday’s disappointing performance, the gelding would be required to perform satisfactorily in an official barrier trial prior to being permitted to race again.
