GOTTA ELECT BILL - attempted to pull up near the 1200m when leading resulting in an easing of the pace hampering trailing runners. A protest was lodged against 1st placing being awarded under Rule 869(7B) alleging the gelding had gained an advantage by racing inside the final track marker prior to the passing lane. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from Stewards and driver W House the Adjudicative Committee dismissed the protest. Mr House was issued a warning for allowing his horse to race inside a track marker.

HAPPY HARPER - weakened rounding the final bend. When questioned regarding the performance trainer J Howe advised the filly was not suited by having to work hard through the middle stages with the effort taking its toll. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a high heart rate and slow recovery. Mr Howe advised he will have blood tests taken from the filly in the coming days and Stewards will follow up the results.
