AMERICANA ELITE - broke near the 700m after hanging inwards and becoming awkwardly placed to the outside of NEK DELIGHT, losing all chance. Stewards questioned driver C Ferguson regarding the breaking of AMERICANA ELITE entering the relevant stage of the race. Mr Ferguson explained that his runner had commenced to hang inwards shortly after he activated the mare's removable gear and required correction at the same time as NEK DELIGHT (K Green) shifted outwards. He stated that, when he attempted to direct AMERICANA ELITE wider on the track, the mare was slow to respond to his efforts. Mr Ferguson further advised that, although he felt at the time NEK DELIGHT's shift outwards was abrupt, there had been no contact between the two runners and he did not believe Miss Green's outward movement, in isolation, had caused his runner to break. After reviewing the available race films and carefully considering Mr Ferguson's explanation and taking into account the manner in which AMERICANA ELITE responded to Mr Ferguson's driving, together with the absence of any contact between the runners, Stewards formed the opinion that Miss Green's outward movement was not the sole contributing factor to AMERICANA ELITE's break. Accordingly, no further action was deemed necessary.

HONEYCOMB - shifted up the track in the run home when racing to the inside of RISE UP N DANCE. Following the race driver N Williamson (RISE UP N DANCE - 2nd placing) viewed the Stewards footage of the concluding stages and elected to lodge a protest against 1st placing being awarded to HONEYCOMB alleging interference in the run home had prevented RISE UP N DANCE from finishing ahead of that runner. After viewing replays and hearing evidence from drivers N Williamson, P Hunter (HONEYCOMB) and Stewards, the Adjudicative Committee dismissed the protest. Driver P Hunter was issued with a warning to make a greater effort to maintain a straight course in the run home.
