Date / Club / Race Desc / Barrier Draw in brackets and horse time
The start of this race was delayed approximately 6 minutes due firstly to St John Ambulance personnel attending to driver P Hunter and secondly the sulky tyre on SHOWCASE deflating in the preliminary requiring a change of sulky. As a consequence, Stewards showed leniency in assessing horse penalties for this race due to the long delay.
ALWAYS DREAMING - when questioned regarding the performance trainer/driver N Williamson advised in his opinion the colt was feeling the effects of recent racing and would now be sent for a spell. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
RUBIRA - shifted inwards throughout the run home having to be straightened by driver B Orange and locked sulky stays with ALWAYS DREAMING over the concluding stages.
COBA CHARGED - raced in restricted room over the concluding stages when ALWAYS DREAMING lay inwards. Following the race driver R Close viewed the footage of the concluding stages before deciding not to proceed with a protest.
BY CHANCE - broke in the score up and was out of position at the start. Raced wide from the 800m. Following the race driver M Hurrell advised Stewards he believed he had been denied a fair start when unable to take up his correct Unruly barrier position due to HERE'S JOHNY being in his position. Stewards requested a ruling from the Adjudicative Committee and after viewing replays and hearing from Mr Hurrell and Stewards, BY CHANCE was declared a non-runner acting under Rule 213(1)(j) due to being denied a fair start.
HERE'S JOHNY - fractious and reared in the pre-race circle dislodging driver P Hunter from the sulky who was uninjured. Placed on the Unruly for future mobile starts at the request of trainer P Hunter.
HERE'S JOHNY - broke shortly after the start checking trailing runners and losing considerable ground. A warning was placed on the barrier record of the gelding.
MIND PHILLY - when questioned regarding the performance driver M Williamson advised the filly had peaked on its run in its first race start since September adding he expected the filly to derive considerable benefit from the race.

Given the circumstances Stewards took the matter no further. Weakened final turn.
ULTIMATE MACH - hung outwards in the score up and was out of position at the start. A warning was placed on the barrier record of the gelding. Lay in rounding the final bend.

Stewards questioned drivers S Kelly (ANGUS FINN) and N Williamson (COLD PURSUIT) which was racing to his outside, regarding this incident. After considering the explanation of both drivers Mr Kelly was issued a charge under Rule 869(3)(b), which he defended, alleging that he drove carelessly when taking a run where insufficient room existed. After viewing replays and hearing evidence from all parties the Adjudicative Committee found the charge proved and suspended Mr Kelly's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing today up to and including 22 November 2024 (2 days).

A warning was placed on the racing record of the gelding. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities. Driver T Nally advised he would be recommending gear changes. Mr Nally also reported the gelding had cast a shoe during the running.
BUBBLE ME - hampered by a weakening runner near the 500m. Stewards questioned driver K Green regarding the tactics she adopted through the middle stages, in particular near the 800m when electing to remain in the running line as opposed to shifting out and progressing forward. Miss Green advised that the filly was not travelling well enough to progress into the race without cover and so she elected to retain her position and wait to trail another runner forward, however the filly then failed to finish the race off as she expected and had proved disappointing. Stewards noted the comments.
BUBBLE ME - lay in racing into the first bend and again over the concluding stages. Driver K Green was warned to ensure that she leaves full access to the passing lane for trailing runners.

MACANDREW MARKUP - hampered by a breaking runner near the 1400m. Held up throughout the run home with driver H Douglas reporting he did not release the removable deafeners in consequence.
CRUISING FONTANA - shifted ground shortly after the start hampering MACANDREW MARKUP which broke in consequence. Driver A Milne defended a charge under Rule 869(3)(b) alleging that he drove carelessly in this incident. After viewing replays and hearing evidence from the Stewards the Adjudicative Committee found the charge proven and following submissions on penalty suspended Mr Milne's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on the 28th January up to and including the 4th February 2024 (2 days).
WARD LAMON - driver K Larsen admitted a charge under Rule 869(2) and the Whip & Rein Regulations that he used his whip with more than a wrist flicking motion early in the run home. After viewing replays and considering submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee imposed a fine of $300.

Stewards questioned driver T Robertson regarding the tactics he adopted during the early and middle stages when being challenged for the lead by the favoured SHE'S A JEWEL. Mr Robertson stated that his intention was to restrain and obtain cover however due to the mare over-racing and laying in he was unable to do so, adding that when SHE'S A JEWEL (B Williamson) attempted to take the lead KARDASHIAN commenced to race fiercely proving very difficult to steer. After viewing the replays which supported Mr Robertson's explanation, Stewards took the matter no further other than to place a warning on the racing record of KARDASHIAN. Mr Robertson also advised he would be suggesting gear changes to connections.

JASPRIT TROUBLE - shifted outwards in the run home checking JORDAN ANNE (M Williamson) which had to be restrained. After taking initial evidence from junior driver R Harrison (assisted by S Ottley) Stewards adjourned the matter due to Mr Williamson having left the course.
KRACKALING - locked sulky wheels with JOHNS BOY shortly after the start and broke as a consequence losing all chance. Stewards spoke with driver B Williamson regarding this incident. Mr Williamson explained that after becoming awkwardly placed behind JORDAN ANNE which was slow to begin, he had shifted to the outside of that runner, and despite the efforts of himself and driver A Armour (JOHNS BOY), the two runners had locked sulky wheels. After viewing replays Stewards were satisfied with the explanation of Mr Williamson and took the matter no further.

DANCING GLENIS - pre-race warmed. Broke at the start and shifted inwards checking AVEROSS MAJESTY and locking wheels with REGAL SIERRA losing all chance. A warning was placed on the barrier record of the mare.
DANCING GLENIS - shifted outwards near the 2100m with THE CHASE racing wider on the track. Stewards investigated a perceived breach of the Push Out Rule where it was established that DANCING GLENIS had commenced to shift outwards prior to THE CHASE reaching its sulky wheel and no further action was required. Over-raced and trotted roughly through the middle stages.
DANCING GLENIS - hampered by a breaking runner at the start and was then slow over the early and middle stages. Weakened from the 900m. When questioned regarding the performance driver J Cox advised the mare had raced lethargically throughout. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.
STYRAX - fractious prior to the start. Broke briefly shortly after the start. A warning was placed on the barrier record of the mare. Broke again rounding the first bend losing considerable ground.

TASHS BAD GIRL - over-raced middle stages. Had difficulty obtaining clear running throughout the run home. Driver A Kyle reported he did not activate the sliding blinds in consequence.
SHERWOOD MAGGIE - hung outwards and paced roughly final bend. Stewards questioned driver J Cox regarding the tactics he adopted for a distance near the 700m, in particular electing to race on the marker line when the opportunity existed to shift out and race in the running line. Mr Cox explained that the mare had locked on one rein and that RAKNRUIN which he was trailing was still travelling well at that stage. Mr Cox further added that after working hard early he was of the opinion his horse was best saved as late as possible in an attempt to find the line. Stewards noted Mr Cox's explanation.
