REGAL GIRL - trotted roughly near the 800m losing ground. Broke briefly leaving the final bend. Stewards spoke with junior drivers A Harrison (assisted by P Ferguson) and H Orange (OCEAN EYES) who declined the assistance of a senior driver. It was established that Mr Orange had shifted out in a safe manner and REGAL GIRL had lay inwards marginally simultaneously to runners ahead also shifting wider at the point of the bend. When taking into account the circumstances Stewards took the matter no further and deemed it to be a racing incident.

BRAVEHEARTHIGHLANDER - held up final turn. When questioned regarding his decision to remain on the back of the leader SANINARMBRO approaching the 500m prior to having been covered by CASTANA, Junior Driver J Dunn (assisted by B Butcher) explained that SANINARMBRO appeared to be travelling well at this stage and felt that the mare would take him to the passing lane however this had not occurred on this occasion. Stewards were satisfied that the manner in which Mr Dunn drove was not unreasonable given the circumstances and took the matter no further.
