FRISCO BAY - broke near the 1800m when racing to the inside of BROOKSIDE GIRL and checked a trailing runner before settling. An investigation was held into this incident. After hearing the relative evidence from A Poutama (FRISCO BAY), D Butcher (BROOKSIDE GIRL) and viewing the replays it was established that HEAVEN HIGH had improved to the inside of FRISCO BAY as Driver D Butcher had commenced to shift BROOKSIDE GIRL inwards to obtain a position in the running line. Mr Butcher had then taken immediate action to shift his filly back to a three wide position to relieve the pressure on FRISCO BAY with Stewards taking no further action other than to warn Mr Butcher for the manner in which he had shifted ground. Weakened in the run home.
