PLAYING WITH STARS - over-raced middle stages. Junior driver H Douglas reported the mare had been striking the sulky wheel discs at various stages during the running. Mr Douglas (assisted by M Williamson) defended a breach of Rule 868(3) alleging he failed to drive the mare out to the end of the race when having a reasonable chance of finishing in 4th place. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from all parties the Adjudicative Committee found the charge proved. After considering submissions on penalty Mr Douglas' driver's licence was suspended from the conclusion of racing today up to and including 1 August 2025 (3 days).

Junior driver R Harrison (assisted by S Ottley) admitted a breach of the Push Out Rule 869(4)(6)(b)(c) in that she shifted outwards near the 1400m forcing WOODLEA DIAMOND to race wider on the track. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee imposed a fine of $200. When questioned regarding the performance Miss Harrison advised the gelding had raced lethargically throughout and been disappointing. Stewards will follow up with connections in the coming days.
