No visible works were constructed, but together with Chauvel, the commanders of the two light horse brigades, whose task it would be to hold the attackers on this ground until the flank attack could begin, studied the area closely.
Ingen synlige skanser blev opført, men sammen med Chauvel studerede lederne af de to lette beredne brigader, som havde til opgave at fastholde angriberne i dette område indtil flankeangrebet kunne begynde, dette område omhyggeligt.
