HAWKEYE PIERCE - Driver T Herlihy defended a charge under Rule 869(4)(6)(b)(c) in that he shifted his runner out near the 1200m forcing MAKO to race wider on the track. After viewing the replays and hearing the relative evidence the Adjudicative Committee found the charge proved and imposed a fine of $200. Raced fiercely for a distance passing the 1000m when being steadied to take a trail.
