GOLD BULLION - hampered by a breaking runner near the 850m. Shifted inwards near the 350m when not clear of GEORGE ELIOT (R Close) which broke losing all chance. Driver B Butt defended a breach of Rule 869(3)(b) alleging he drove carelessly when shifting ground resulting in GEORGE ELIOT being checked. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from all parties the Adjudicative Committee dismissed the charge.

KRACKALING - locked sulky wheels with JOHNS BOY shortly after the start and broke as a consequence losing all chance. Stewards spoke with driver B Williamson regarding this incident. Mr Williamson explained that after becoming awkwardly placed behind JORDAN ANNE which was slow to begin, he had shifted to the outside of that runner, and despite the efforts of himself and driver A Armour (JOHNS BOY), the two runners had locked sulky wheels. After viewing replays Stewards were satisfied with the explanation of Mr Williamson and took the matter no further.
