DON'T STOP DREAMING - Driver N Rasmussen was questioned regarding her decision not to shift out to lead up the running line prior to being covered by REPUBLICAN PARTY near the 1300m. Ms Rasmussen stated that she had been mindful that her runner had over-raced at its previous start when outside the leader and had warmed up quite aggressively prior to tonight's event so felt her best option was to look to improve with a trail rather than risk the entire over-racing again if left in the open. Stewards noted Ms Rasmussen's comments.

CHARLIE BROWN - raced wide from the 500m. When questioned regarding the tactics he adopted in the middle stages driver J Dunn advised the gelding races best with cover and had been unable to progress forward due to the three wide line never becoming established in the back straight on the final occasion. Mr Dunn added he attempted to improve wide on the final bend however had been unable to make ground due to the fast closing sectionals.

MIKI SHAN - lay inwards rounding the final turn contacting several track markers. Driver M McKendry admitted a charge under Rule 869(3)(b) in that he shifted ground inwards near the 600m when not sufficiently clear of MERLIN which had to be restrained thereby losing its racing position. After hearing penalty submissions the Adjudicative Committee suspended Mr McKendry's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing tonight up to and including 27 September 2024 (2 days).
