Became awkwardly placed close to the sulky of HELIUM racing into the first bend after a slight easing of the pace and had to be shifted wider on the track. Authorisation of 4th placing was withheld until Stewards were satisfied the gelding had complied with the Breaking Horses Regulation in the early stages.

JUSTCALLMEMIKI - raced wide early. When questioned regarding the performance driver B Orange advised he was disappointed notwithstanding the gelding had worked hard in the early stages. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a high heart rate and signs of muscle tie-up. Trainer H Cullen advised he would have blood tests taken from the gelding in the coming days and will advise the results to Stewards.

LIVE ON LEGEND - trainer K Austin advised the gelding has been treated for a blood disorder since last racing. Raced wide early. Over-raced middle stages. Weakened from the 700m hampering a trailing runner. Driver J Cox advised that the gelding had got its tongue over the bit and may have choked down and he would be recommending gear changes prior to racing on Sunday.

LAVER - weakened from the 800m. When questioned regarding the performance driver G O'Reilly advised the gelding had raced lethargically from the 800m after improving wide through the middle stages and he was disappointed with the effort. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a slow recovery. Stewards will follow up with connections in the coming days.
