DENNIS DENUTO - over-raced middle stages. Held up early in the run home. Driver R Close advised he did not activate the removable deafeners due to having the field covered. Mr Close admitted a breach of Rule 869(3)(b) in that he drove carelessly when shifting outwards near the 250m resulting in BETTERTHANDIVA (L Dobbs) and BETTERWITHBLING (S Hill) being hampered and KRYSTAL DELIGHT (B Hope) being checked. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty, the Adjudicative Committee imposed a fine of $250.

BARBAROSSA - over-raced middle stages. Lay out near the 600m contacting and puncturing the sulky wheel of CONRAD H and then broke with the near hind hopple loop breaking losing all chance. A warning was placed on the gelding's racing manners. Driver K Coppins (assisted by T Mitchell) was shown the replay and spoken to advisedly in relation to the manner in which she drove in the incident near the 600m. Ms Coppins advised that BARBAROSSA had been contacting its own sulky wheel with a hind leg causing it to over-race.
