KAIRO - lay inwards into the passing lane in the run home. Driver K Green was spoken to regarding this and reminded of her obligations to maintain a straight course in the run home and leave the passing lane clear for trailing runners. Trainer K Green advised she would be making gear changes prior to the gelding racing next.
WYPOUT - weakened final bend.
ROYAL PAT - lay inwards rounding the first bend losing contact with the body of the field for the remainder of the race.

Race 2   CREATION SIGNS MOBILE PACE
SANDO DENARIO - paced roughly and broke briefly shortly after the start losing ground. A warning was placed on the barrier record of the filly. Continued to pace roughly at various stages throughout. Weakened final bend. A post-race veterinary examination revealed SANDO DENARIO to be showing signs of muscle tie-up. Trainer B Gray advised the filly would be sent for a spell.
FREEDOM SWEET - shifted into the passing lane in the run home. Driver E Barron was issued with a warning to make a greater effort to maintain a straight course in the run home and leave full access for trailing runners. Miss Barron advised she did not activate the removable deafeners due to having the field covered.

SMILEY MILEY - weakened from the 700m.
Race 3   SUBWAY WINTON TROT
BURNING LOVE - broke racing into the first bend losing considerable ground.
ANDY HALL - driver C Dalgety advised he was unable to activate the sliding blinds due to the cord becoming entangled.
THE GREEK FREAK - driver R Stevens admitted a charge under Rule 869(2) and the Whip and Rein Regulations in that he used his whip free of the rein on several occasions in the run home. After viewing replays and considering submissions on penalty the Adjudicative Committee imposed a suspension of Mr Stevens' driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on 8 November up to and including 18 November 2026 (2 days).
MAJESTIC ME - fractious prior to the start. Raced wide early. Hung outwards leaving the final bend and shifted up the track despite the efforts of driver B Williamson. When questioned regarding the performance Mr Williamson advised he was disappointed with the effort and could offer no explanation.
HOT SAUCY BETTY - broke after 100m losing all chance.
Race 4   GOODMAN PLUMBING MOBILE PACE
SURE TO RISE - weakened final bend hampering a trailing runner.
ROGUE WAVE - paced roughly final bend. Stewards questioned junior driver W House regarding the manner he drove in the run home. Mr House explained that the gelding had hung outwards and been striking a knee causing it to pace roughly and for this reason he was reluctant to place the horse under any significant pressure as he felt it may break, adding he would be recommending gear changes prior to the gelding racing next. After viewing the replays which confirmed Mr House's explanation Stewards took the matter no further.
SWAHILI - raced wide throughout.

Stewards questioned junior drivers D Anderson (DELIGHTINGOLD), assisted by M Hurrell, and H Douglas (MIKI SKIPPER), assisted by J Douglas, regarding this incident. It was established that DELIGHTINGOLD had hung outwards after Mr Anderson had activated the sliding blinds and despite his efforts the mare's hind leg made contact with the sulky wheel of MIKI SKIPPER which had shifted inwards marginally after Mr Douglas had difficulty activating the removable deafeners, resulting in DELIGHTINGOLD breaking as a consequence. After hearing from both drivers Stewards were satisfied that no blame could be apportioned to any one horse or driver and no further action was deemed necessary.
