ALLAMERICANLOVER - raced keenly through the middle stages. All clear was withheld to enable Stewards to view the replays of the run home with Driver J Dickie to ascertain whether there were grounds for a protest against the 2nd placing of LIFES A BEACH after these two runners came together on several occasions in the run home. It was established that any inconvenience to ALLAMERICANLOVER had been minimal until passing the 50m when both horses shifted ground contributing to the contact between sulkies which resulted in ALLAMERICANLOVER losing some momentum. Stewards and Mr Dickie were satisfied that there weren't sufficient grounds for a protest and placings were duly authorised.
