MARIA KIRILENKO - Stewards questioned driver M Northcott regarding the tactics she adopted near the 950m when shifting outwards from a trailing position. Ms Northcott explained she believed the tempo of the race was easing and given the mare's recent tendency to be unable to quicken in the final stages when racing with cover, she elected to shift into the open in an effort to improve the pace and encourage the mare to race more competitively. She further advised the mare had appreciated a recent gear change. Stewards noted Ms Northcott's explanation.
