MISS BEBE - broke passing the 400m and was taken down inside the marker line to clear trailing runners but soon settled then raced inside the track markers rounding the final bend for a distance. Stewards lodged a protest under Rule 869(7B) against this runner's 3rd placing alleging the mare had gained an advantage in this incident. After hearing the relative evidence and viewing the replays the Adjudicative Committee upheld the protest and disqualified MISS BEBE.

Slw,tailed off,never a live threat

The start was delayed at the first attempt due to VORONOV and MISS BEBE coming to the barrier out of position with the field being turned out of line. Driver D Butcher (MISS BEBE) was issued a $200 Minor Infringement Notice for delaying the start. The start was then further delayed when HELSINGOR required assistance from an Attendant after being reluctant to come forward onto the barrier.

STONE COLD - lay inwards approaching the 200m when attempting to shift out off the back of TATANKA with Driver S Abernethy then electing to shift back to the inside of TATANKA however was held up over the final stages when unable to obtain clear racing room. When questioned Mr Abernethy confirmed that the gelding had been on the outside rein leaving the final turn and had lost momentum so he felt it was his best option to shift back down the track to attempt to improve however this resulted in the gelding being held up over the final stages. Trainer J Teaz advised that he was surprised that STONE COLD was so well supported in the market given its recent form and it was his intention to restrict this runner to right handed racing for the immediate future. Stewards noted the circumstances and respective comments and took the matter no further.
