AUNTIE DEB - Stewards questioned driver H Orange regarding the manner he drove rounding the first bend when restraining to allow SWEET RAINE to improve ahead of him. Mr Orange explained that he was of the opinion both JUKEBOX GYPSY and TEDDY THE TERROR would improve forward to the lead which would leave him in the parked position so felt his best option was to restrain to follow SWEET RAINE to obtain cover, however this did not eventuate when that runner also improved forward to lead near the 1100m. After considering his explanation Stewards were satisfied his tactics were not unreasonable in the circumstances and took the matter no further.
