FIERY BANDITO - broke leaving the first bend. Authorisation of this runner's 1st placing was withheld until the Stewards had confirmed the gelding had complied with the Breaking Horses Regulation. Stewards investigated a perceived breach of the Push Out Rule when FIERY BANDITO briefly raced wider on the track near the 1300m after XERION shifted ground outwards. After viewing the replays, it was established that driver K Larsen (XERION) had commenced his outwards movement prior to FIERY BANDITO reaching his sulky wheel. Accordingly, no further action was deemed necessary.
