BUDDY GUY - shifted out near the 150m checking JOHNNY LINCOLN (3rd place) for several strides. Authorisation of 1st placing was withheld until Stewards and connections of JOHNNY LINCOLN viewed the replays to ascertain whether there were grounds for a protest. After viewing the replays and hearing from Driver P Ferguson (JOHNNY LINCOLN) Stewards took the matter no further with the connections of JOHNNY LINCOLN also electing not to proceed with a protest. A warning was placed on BUDDY GUY's racing manners. Driver C Hackett was examined by St John Ambulance after having been dragged for a distance when tipped from the sulky on returning to the stabling area but was found to be uninjured and cleared to take her drive in race 9. BUDDY GUY was also uninjured in this incident.
