Hi Glen,
Yes , Colin Brown had stated that he was going to hold the lead at all costs. I would be thinking had Lombo Navigator attained the lead you would probably have seen Dasher VC
go around and take up the running to dictate the pace; they probably thought Ima Rocket Star would hand up with pressure put on. Ima Rocket Star is no slouch having run
second to Villagem in the Chariots but injury has probably prevented the best being seen from the horse.
