IMPERIAL COMMAND - raced three wide in the early stages until reaching the parked position near the 1200m. Unsuccessfully challenged for the lead through the middle stages. Weakened early in the run home. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities. Stewards questioned driver A Clark regarding the tactics he adopted through the middle stages when challenging KRACKA LOOKA for the lead before weakening. After considering his explanation, Stewards issued a charge under Rule 869(3)(g) alleging he drove in a manner capable of diminishing his chances of winning when applying significant pressure to KRACKA LOOKA which was leading through the middle stages. Mr Clark admitted the charge and after viewing the replays and hearing evidence from Stewards and Mr Clark, the Adjudicative Committee suspended his driver's licence from the conclusion of racing today up to and including 24 September 2023 (6 days).
