MISS RALPHIE- Hung in over the concluding stages.
Following the running of this race, Stewards and Riders inspected the track from the winning post to the 500m due to concerns with the racing surface. The concern related to the issue of horses breaking through the firm racing surface, into soft soil due to recent rainfall. A number of large divots were identified and track officials were requested to drag the track in an endeavour to rectify to issue. Following these works the track was again inspected. Following the inspection, the riders informed Stewards of their unanimous decision that the track was unsafe for racing and therefore the remainder of the meeting was abandoned at 3:10pm.
