Inter Dominion Pacing Championship (2nd Round Qualifying Heats) (Group 3) – Shepparton 29 November 2022 – Race 7

David Miles, trainer of Focus Stride has notified that subsequent to the 1st Round Qualifying Heat of the Inter Dominion Pacing Championship at Ballarat on 26 November 2022, considering the performance of the horse in that event was below expectations and the subsequent recovery of Focus Stride, an endoscopic examination of the horse was performed. Mr Miles added that as a consequence of the findings of this examination, including mucus being identified, the decision was made to withdraw Focus Stride from the 2022 Inter Dominion Pacing Championship and therefore the horse has been scratched from Race 7 at Shepparton on 29 November 2022.
