Following its most recent race start on 12 May 2018, PRESIDENTPARAMOUNT was required to perform satisfactorily in a stalls test before being permitted to race again after being fractious and kicking out in the barrier stalls on a number of occasions.

PRESIDENTPARAMOUNT subsequently undertook its stipulated stalls test on 24 May 2018 after which it was published that the horse passed the test with Blinkers and a Hood applied and was required to race in those pieces of equipment at its next race start.

It has subsequently been established that PRESIDENTPARAMOUNT did not carry Blinkers, and only carried a Hood and Lugging Bit during the stated test. Accordingly, PRESIDENTPARAMOUNT will wear a Hood and Lugging Bit in the aforementioned race.
