SONG SUNG BLUE - held up early in the run home and raced inside and contacted track markers. Stewards lodged a protest against 4th placing being awarded under Rule 869(7B) alleging the gelding had gained an advantage by racing inside a track marker early in the run home. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from Stewards and junior driver G Thornley (assisted by C Thornley), the Adjudicative Committee upheld the protest and SONG SUNG BLUE was disqualified. Miss Thornley admitted an associated charge in that she allowed her sulky wheel to move inside the marker line which gained an advantage. After considering submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee suspended Miss Thornley's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on 1 February up to and including 8 February 2026 (3 days).
