Driver B Williamson was warned for the manner he shifted ground at this point. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no obvious abnormalities.

Of particular concern was his decision to shift outwards from the one/one position near the 1500 metres to sit adjacent to the lead horse for some distance. Mr Williamson advised that the gelding was one paced and due to the slow speed he elected to go forward and apply some pressure in an attempt to obtain the front.

After viewing the films and taking into account the over all time of the race Stewards noted Mr Williamson's comments.
