2001


STEWARDS: P LANE, L CARVOSSO, R DOYLE

Weather: FINE Track: GOOD Rail: TRUE

RACE: 1. Tigers (L Appo) slow into stride. Roman God (App C Bryen) inclined to shift out under the whip at the top of the straight.
Time off: 1:03pm
Swab winner Roman God


RACE: 2. App C Bryen unable to claim any of his 3kg allowance in Ignason. When questioned by stewards App Bryen said that he had intended to claim at least the majority of his 3kg claim but he had been ill on Thursday & Friday, which had made it difficult to waste. Due to the shortage of jockeys at the meeting and a request by Trainer Bevan Klein that App Bryen be permitted to ride the horse. The stewards allowed the engagement to stand. App Bryen cautioned with regards to claiming a majority of his claim when accepting rides in the future. Ignason raced fiercely over the first 300m with its’ head in the air and lost considerable ground. The trainer was alerted. Rockeasy (M Dorrington) dismounted to load.

RACE: 4. An inquiry into the engagement of P Clarke on Merry Meryl that Trainer Les Hirst had in fact engaged W Orbell to ride the horse but had nominated P Clarke as the rider when he contacted the QPC. Jockey P Clarke agreed to stand down in favour of W Orbell as he felt Trainer Hirst was in fact confused. Stewards did not pursue the matter further as it was believed Mr Hirst had made the error in good faith.
