He further explained that between the 500m and the 400m, he began to contemplate where to make his run. In this regard, he initially attempted to go in, however, BALOUCHI (J. Allyhosain) drifted in. Thereafter, he attempted to make his run on the outside of BALOUCHI, however, at this juncture, BALOUCHI rolled out just enough for ILLICIT KISS to become awkwardly placed on heels.

However, in the straight, this gelding laid in throughout and whilst somewhat inconvenienced by BALOUCHI shifting out away from the whip, ultimately, this gelding did not produce a strong finish.
