VORONOV - unsuccessfully contested for the lead middle stages. Weakened rounding the final turn hampering an outside runner. Driver L Chin admitted a charge under Rule 868(2) in that failed to take all reasonable and permissible measures during the middle stages to ensure his gelding was given full opportunity to win or obtain the best possible position and/or finishing place by persisting with a challenge for the lead which resulted in this runner weakening rounding the final turn to finish in 11th place.
