GOTTA LATHER UP - trainer W Stevenson was issued a warning for presenting the gelding to race with fixed deafeners which had not been notified. Paced roughly leaving the final bend after becoming awkwardly placed to the inside of EDICT making contact with that runner's sulky wheel hampering a trailing runner. Driver J Dunn admitted a breach of Rule 869(3)(b) in that he drove carelessly when allowing his horse to strike the sulky wheel of EDICT which punctured. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty, the Adjudicative Committee imposed a fine of $250.
