WHO'S YA DADDY - Stewards lodged a protest against 2nd placing being awarded under Rule 859(2) to determine whether the gelding had started in advance of its correct unruly position on the second line. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from Stewards, driver B Butt and Starter R Donnelly, the Adjudicative Committee dismissed the protest.

ROBBIE K - trainer P Nairn advised the gelding would be racing without front shoes. Trotted roughly over the concluding stages and was unable to be driven out by driver P Nairn. Stewards questioned Mr Nairn regarding the tactics he adopted near the 1500m when electing to shift away from a trailing position to improve to the lead, and also the circumstances which enabled KAWATIRI TREV to improve to his inside leaving the final bend. Mr Nairn advised that after electing to restrain ROBBIE K in the early stages to trail KAWATIRI TREV, he had initially been satisfied to remain in that position, noting that ROBBIE K lacks speed and he had anticipated KAWATIRI TREV would maintain an even tempo when leading. However, near the 1500m KAWATIRI TREV commenced to race greenly which resulted in the pace easing, and he formed the view that it was in his gelding's best interests to shift outwards and improve to the lead in order to ensure a more genuine tempo. Mr Nairn further advised that ROBBIE K raced greenly rounding the final bend and hung outwards despite his efforts, as it had at its most recent trial, which enabled KAWATIRI TREV to obtain a run to its inside. After reviewing the available films from the most recent trial and today's race, and considering Mr Nairn's explanation, Stewards took the matter no further other than to place a warning on the racing record of ROBBIE K. Mr Nairn advised that gear changes will be made prior to the gelding racing again.
