Mr Stormont further advised that he then elected to shift down to the marker line near the 700m in an attempt to save ground so as to assist his gelding's chances.

KISS MY PIXEL - back from position when the barriers were released impeding ALL MUSCLED UP. Weakened from the 700m. Driver G Martin admitted a breach of Rule 858(1)(f) in that he failed to come up into position at the start which resulted in interference to another runner. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee suspended Mr Martin's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing tonight up to and including 6 June 2025 (2 days).
