After viewing the replays it was established that driver T Williams (TRIBBIANI) had commenced his outwards movement prior to either runner reaching his sulky wheel and no further action was required.

After viewing the replays it was established that driver T Williams (TRIBBIANI) had commenced his outwards movement prior to either runner reaching his sulky wheel and no further action was required.

Stewards investigated a possible breach of the Push Out Rule however after viewing replays it was established that driver G Thornley (FRANCO TIM) had commenced her outwards movement prior to SWEET WILLOW reaching her sulky wheel, accordingly no further action was required.

LILY'S A STAR - broke shortly after the start after contacting the sulky wheel of MELTON MAGNATE losing considerable ground. Stewards lodged a protest against 12th placing being awarded under Rule 870(3) and the Breaking Horses Regulation alleging the mare had broken in excess of 150m in the early stages. Driver M Holbrough did not contest the protest and LILY'S A STAR was disqualified by Stewards. Miss Holbrough (assisted by B Mowbray) admitted a breach of Rule 869(3)(b) in that she drove carelessly when shifting ground and allowing her runner to strike the sulky wheel of MELTON MAGNATE resulting in her runner breaking and losing all chance. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty, the Adjudicative Committee suspended Miss Holbrough's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on 3 December up to and including 6 December 2025 (2 days).

SILVERLININGS - stood on the mark and swung sideways as the start was effected checking WANNA PLAY A GAME with both drivers T Williams (SILVERLININGS) and S Ottley (WANNA PLAY A GAME) being dislodged from their respective sulkies. Placed on the unruly for future standing starts. Authorisation of placings were withheld until Stewards had viewed replays of the start and were satisfied that the interference had occurred after the barrier had been released. Mr Williams was examined by St John personnel and cleared of injury to fulfill his remaining driving engagement.

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.

CAPTAIN KOBE - Stewards investigated a possible breach of the Push Out Rule near the 1700m when this runner raced wider on the track after shifting out off the back of TASI AHNAU. It was established that TASI AHNAU had shifted up the track when being steadied near the 1750m prior to CAPTAIN KOBE reaching its sulky wheel. These two runners then locked wheels briefly approaching the 1500m.

BAZOOKA - slow to leave the pre-race formation and paced roughly in the score up resulting in the gelding being out of position at the start. Placed on the unruly for future mobile starts. Driver S Ottley reported the gelding had paced roughly and raced lethargically throughout. A post-race veterinary examination revealed minor lameness in the left hind leg. Stewards will follow up with connections in the coming days.

Mr Close admitted a breach of Rule 869(3)(b) in that he drove carelessly when shifting outwards near the 150m checking and hampering outside runners. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee suspended Mr Close's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on 27 July up to and including 8 August 2025 (3 days).

WHO'S DELIGHT - checked and broke near the 600m when racing between DYNASTY and VESSEM losing all chance. Stewards questioned drivers B Butt (DYNASTY), J Dunn (WHO'S DELIGHT) assisted by Senior driver J Dunn and O Thornley (VESSEM) regarding this incident. After viewing the replays and considering their explanations, Stewards were unable to apportion blame onto any one horse or driver and took the matter no further.

When questioned regarding the performance driver B Butt advised the gelding had travelled well however had failed to respond to his urgings when placed under pressure in the run home. A post-race veterinary and endoscopic examination revealed a poor recovery and a degree of mucous that may have affected the horse's racing performance. A veterinary clearance will be required prior to racing again.

WE WALK BY FAITH - begun awkwardly. Held up near the 150m and shifted outwards placing JOLIMONT in restricted room which had to be steadied and with CHASE A DREAM also being hampered. Hampered near 50m when an inside runner lay outwards and held up thereafter. Driver M White wished to view the films in relation to a possible protest being lodged against the 2nd placed (SOONER THE BETTOR) on the grounds of interference in the run home. After viewing the films Mr White declined the opportunity to protest and placings were duly authorised. Driver M White admitted a charge under Rule 869(3)(b) alleging he drove carelessly near the 150m when shifting ground outwards. After viewing the replays and hearing submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee suspended Mr White's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on 10 May up to and including 23 May 2025 (4 days).

WINELIGHT - when questioned regarding his decision to take a trail near the 1200m after initially holding the lead, Driver M White advised that, while he was keen to maintain the lead due to the filly's strong performance at her previous start, he was mindful of the work she had been required to do after leading from the wide barrier and being challenged by BESIDE ME down the back straight on the first occasion. Consequently, when he eased the tempo, he felt it was in the filly's best interests to take a trail when GENERAL JEN improved forward near the 1200m, rather than urging his runner forward again. Stewards noted Mr White's comments.

LAKELSA - lay outwards early in the run home and was held up for clear racing room until inside the 50m. Stewards questioned driver R Close regarding his decision to shift outwards early in the run home when a run to the inside of RUBY ROE was available. Mr Close advised that at the time he elected to shift outwards, there appeared to be only marginal room to his inside, and a run to the outside was presenting when FRANCENT lay outwards, however this option closed shortly after. After hearing from Mr Close and reviewing the replays, Stewards were satisfied that his decision was not unreasonable in the circumstances and took the matter no further.

SPIRIT DOWNUNDER - over-raced when racing in the parked position through the early and middle stages. Held up early in the run home. Stewards questioned driver C Ferguson regarding the tactics he adopted near the 900m when electing to shift down to the marker line as opposed to remaining in the one one position. Mr Ferguson explained that he felt that his best option was to shift inwards and follow ROCKINGOOD and DEADLINE who were both favoured runners rather than remain in the one out line following NICKEL AND DIME which had improved quickly to race in the parked position through the middle stages as this would have resulted in him having to improve wide on the final bend. After considering the matter, Stewards were satisfied that Mr Ferguson's tactics were not unreasonable in the circumstances and took the matter no further.

Stewards questioned drivers B Hope (ZARLINI) and S Ottley (DAWN TO DARK) regarding this incident where it was established that both runners had shifted ground simultaneously and jostled for a short distance in an attempt to obtain a position in the running line behind HUGO. After viewing the replays and considering both drivers explanation, Stewards were satisfied no one horse or driver was at fault and accordingly took the matter no further.

Chkd early,gear issue,pulled up
OLYMPIAN - broke as the start was effected hampering a trailing runner and then shifted outwards making contact with the sulky of REIMBURST resulting in driver R Close being unbalanced and sustaining a punctured sulky tyre with both runners losing all chance. A warning was placed on the barrier record of the gelding. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a laceration on the right front leg which was treated. Connections advised consideration would be given to sending the horse for a spell.
