Stewards questioned S. Galloway concerning the seemingly disappointing performance of GRITTY, which finished near the rear of the field. S. Galloway explained that the horse travelled satisfactorily until the 600m., however when asked for an effort, failed to respond to his riding, and he felt that the horse may not have been suited by the heavy track. He further explained that in his opinion the horse may be looking for further ground in its races. The explanation was noted.

G. Duffy was questioned as to the disappointing performance of AURORA AUSTRALIS. G. Duffy explained that the horse was not comfortable in the heavy conditions and failed to respond to his riding at any stage. AURORA AUSTRALIS, which finished a considerable distance from the main body of the field, was examined by the club's veterinary surgeon who reported that the horse had cast a plate, however he could find no other significant abnormality. A swab sample was taken from AURORA AUSTRALIS.
