Declaration of correct weight was delayed when App J Molloy, rider of 2nd place getter BOOM BY BY, lodged an objection against 1st place getter JACK BE LUCKY (App E Lang) being declared the winner alleging interference on entering the home straight. After taking evidence from the riders involved and connections of the runners as well as viewing the official patrol footage Stewards ascertained that soon after entering the home straight JACK BE LUCKY had commenced to lay in and shifted across the running of BOOM BY BY obliging that runner to then shift out to obtain clear running. As Stewards could not be satisfied that had the shift from JACK BE LUCKY, which caused no real interference to BOOM BY BY, not occurred that BOOM BY BY would have passed the post before that runner and bearing in mind the official margin of a short half-head the protest was dismissed, with correct weight declared on the Judges semaphored numbers.

App E MacPherson was fined the sum of $100 under the provisions of AR190(3) for accepting a ride when overweight. Stewards inquired into the tactics adopted on the gelding which settled outside KIKI COCO, which was racing keenly, and led the field by a considerable distance before compounding in the home straight. App Williams advised his instructions had been not to restrain his mount and as such he let it stride forward. Trainer S Barker corroborated the instructions and advised that, in his opinion, the gelding is better suited to events over further distances and is more appreciative of female riders. Stewards noted the explanations.
