LIL WHIP - pre-race warmed. Broke near the 600m losing all chance. Stewards questioned Junior Driver E Johnson (AND REMEMBER ME) (assisted by T Mitchell), Drivers T Herlihy (LIL WHIP) and J Abernethy (HENRIK LUNDQVIST) regarding this incident. After viewing the replays and hearing the relative evidence Stewards could not solely attribute blame to any one horse or driver. Notwithstanding this Mr Herlihy and Mr Abernethy were reminded of their obligations given similar circumstances in the future. In considering this matter Stewards took into account that Mr Herlihy had been placed at a disadvantage after losing his safety glasses near the 1600m as well as the outward movement of HENRIK LUNDQVIST contributing to the incident.

Stewards questioned driver J Morrison in relation to this incident where it was established there had been a slight easing of the pace simultaneously to Mr Morrison's movement outwards with his horse also inclined to lay inwards. Stewards attributed no blame to horse or driver and accordingly took the matter no further.

HIDDEN TALENT - hampered by a breaking runner at the start. Driver N Williamson reported he did not release the removable deafeners due to having the field covered. Stewards spoke with Mr Williamson regarding the mare shifting ground in the run home and not maintaining a straight line. Mr Williamson explained that at this mare's previous start when finishing wide on the track she had shied at the crowd when obtaining the lead therefore today he elected to shift down the track when well clear of other runners to avoid a repeat of the previous start. Stewards noted Mr Williamson's comments.
