GIFT CARD - lay in throughout the run home. Stewards questioned driver S O'Reilly regarding the tactics she adopted during the running in particular when electing to remain in the running line passing the 500m and not shift out to progress forward when the opportunity existed to do so. Miss O'Reilly explained that the gelding has a tendency to hang on the final bend and in her opinion is more competitive when following another horse at this stage of the race so she elected to remain in the running line. Stewards also questioned her apparent lack of vigour over the concluding stages when narrowly beaten into 4th placing. Miss O'Reilly explained that the gelding had come to the end of its run and trotted roughly over the concluding stages when laying in and was unable to be fully driven out as a consequence. Stewards noted Miss O'Reilly's comments.

BRETT'S MATE - shifted outwards leaving the final bend briefly locking wheels with A FINE PATRICK which broke losing its chance. Stewards questioned drivers J Dunn (A FINE PATRICK) and K Cameron (BRETT'S MATE) regarding this matter where it was established that Mr Cameron had shifted outwards in a gradual and acceptable manner, however, A FINE PATRICK had hung inwards and proved difficult for Mr Dunn to shift wider on the track to accommodate the manoeuvre. After viewing the replays and considering both drivers explanation Stewards could not apportion blame on either driver and took the matter no further.
