FIERY BANDITO - broke leaving the first bend. Authorisation of this runner's 1st placing was withheld until the Stewards had confirmed the gelding had complied with the Breaking Horses Regulation.

After viewing the replays, it was established that driver K Larsen (XERION) had commenced his outwards movement prior to FIERY BANDITO reaching his sulky wheel.
