ALMA BUBBLES – Slow to begin.
 
REAL MACHINE – Reared as the start was effected and lost ground. Raced wide throughout.
 
Race 3: ACCESS INSULATION OPEN H’CAP – 1400M

Race 4: HOT 91.1 QTIS 3YO MAIDEN PLATE – 1200M
 
BEAT THE BEAST – Raced three wide with cover.
 
GRAM PASO – Raced three wide without cover. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the horse to be making an abnormal respiratory noise and to be lame in the off foreleg. Trainer N. McCall was advised that she must obtain a veterinary clearance for the horse, including the results of an endoscopic examination, prior to its next start.
 
ROSENBAUER – Apprentice J. Murphy reported that his mount was field shy throughout the event and became very awkward approaching the 300m when slightly inconvenienced by another runner.

ALL LOVE – Held up rounding the home turn.

Apprentice J. Murphy, the rider of SHOWASHADOW, was reprimanded for being late leaving the jockeys’ room.
 
AKAGE – Overraced in the early stages before being shifted wider near the 800m to avoid heels and raced wide from that point onwards.

MISS POLLY BEAT – J. Orman reported that his mount hung in under pressure in the home straight.
 
ENVIRONMENTAL – Raced wide throughout.

Race 8: KIRIN DAYBREAK LOVER – 1200M
 
BEAU GESTE – Held up and unable to improve from the 600m until passing the 400m.
 
EQUAL BALANCE – Tightened for room shortly after the start. Raced four wide without cover.
 
SCALLOPINI – Slow to begin. Raced five wide without cover. Stewards interviewed apprentice B. Thornton regarding his riding of the gelding, which raced five wide throughout the event. Apprentice Thornton indicated that he felt his ride was poorly judged in that after being slow to begin, in hindsight, he should have restrained quickly from the barriers and obtained a position closer to the fence. He indicated that at the time he felt he would be able to obtain a position midfield with cover, however when EQUAL BALANCE and BEAU GESTE did not shift closer to the fence in the early stages, he was caught wide outside those horses’ heels, and when approaching the 800m felt that he would not improve his mount’s chances by steadying and losing further ground to obtain a position closer to the fence. Stewards agreed that with hindsight apprentice Thornton’s ride lacked judgement, however the decision not to restrain immediately out of the barriers was not so unreasonable as to hold him culpable under the rules and therefore no further action was taken.
 
COLOSIMO – Had difficulty securing clear running rounding the home turn and then was held up for clear running from the 200m until leaving the 100m.
 
WINTER BRIDE – Raced three wide without cover.
 
SHEIKHA – Jumped away awkwardly. T. Harrison dropped her whip near the 300m.
 
ITALIA BELLA – After rider L. Tarrant reported that his mount became awkward in its action in the early stages of the home straight and weakened over the concluding stages, the horse underwent a post-race veterinary examination which revealed no significant findings. Stewards will follow up with trainer S. Kendrick in coming days regarding the horse’s post-race recovery.
 
Race 9: CALOUNDRA RSL CLASS 1 H’CAP – 1600M
 
Stewards accepted trainer B. Laming’s explanation for the late scratching of CLEVER BLAZE at 7:44 am.
 
GOLDEN SHEAF – Had difficulty securing clear running for a short distance passing the 300m.
 
HARD RULER – Overraced in the early stages when the pace was only steady. Had difficulty securing clear running rounding the home turn and made contact with another runner when attempting to secure clear running.
 
LUCY LE ROC – Bumped by another runner passing the 400m. A. Spinks reported that the mare did not handle today’s track conditions.
 
STAR ADELE – Raced wide without cover for the majority of the event. Laid in under pressure in the home straight.
