Does anyone know why?

At 10:20 pm Friday 21/4/07 A Qantas 747 300 aborted an approach for Perth.
I was out at the Airport and noticed it was inbound on finals from the north when all of a sudden there was a mighty roar of engines the wheels went up (landing lights went out) and it started climbing while turning right and travelling over South Guildford before turning further and heading up to (guessing) The Whitman Park area before commencing it's 2nd approach, and landing at about 10:35.
From where I was there was nothing obvious although I couldn't see the entire runway and as far as I know nothing had landed in the proceeding couple of minutes that might have caused an obstruction.
