POISON IVY - over-raced when being restrained to obtain cover for a distance passing the 1400m. Continued to over-race placing driver O Thornley in some difficulty and as a result made contact with the back of the sulky of LARISSA BEAUDIENE and broke before falling near the 600m dislodging driver O Thornley checking SHADOW CREEK, HERE COMES MARTY, DOVER TERRACE and JOHN STEWART with driver M Williamson being dislodged from the sulky of JOHN STEWART. POISON IVY escaped driverless before being recaptured and was transported from the track in the Horse Ambulance. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a head injury with the mare being treated before being referred to the Canterbury Equine Clinic for further assessment. Stood down pending a veterinary clearance prior to completing one trial to the satisfaction of Stewards before resuming. Driver O Thornley was examined by St John personnel and cleared of injury to fulfill her remaining driving engagement.

ONE EYE BANDIT - lay outwards and paced roughly rounding the final bend. Raced greenly near the 250m and shifted up the track when hanging outwards despite the efforts of driver B Butt. Again paced roughly in the run home. When questioned regarding the performance Mr Butt advised he elected to drive the gelding for one run as it possesses high speed however the horse had panicked when being forced wider rounding the final bend and had paced roughly and shifted outwards abruptly. Mr Butt added he would be making changes to the gelding's gear for future racing.
