Race 4: Ashgrove Cricket Centenary F&M 1 MW H'cap – 1110m

Prior to correct weight, rider A. Spinks requested a viewing of the stewards’ video as he was of the view that his mount may have gained an unfair advantage on the field by lunging forward prior to the start being effected and opening the mare’s barrier gate prematurely. Stewards subsequently ruled that a fair start had been effected.

TIGER DIMEJAN – Rider B. Grylls made application to the stewards that her mount had been denied a fair start due to it due to it being held by a barrier attendant as the start was effected, which resulted in the horse losing considerable ground. Stewards established from the starter that a barrier attendant had been requested to attend the mare in the gates, and were satisfied that his actions had not contributed to the mare rearing as the start was effected. A warning was placed Tiger Dimejan regarding its barrier manners.
