Lee had to sit momentarily. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. W.J. Lee stated that his mount was lugging right and going nowhere so he took a precautionary check. G.F.

Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that no further action was warranted.

The Raceday Stewards received a report from the IHRB Veterinary Officer, Mr. A. Tyrrell that Azada ridden by C.D. Hayes had been marked when examined post race, the Raceday Stewards interviewed C.D. Hayes concerning his use of the whip in the closing stages of this race. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned and from the IHRB Veterinary Officer. Mr. A. Tyrrell showed photographic evidence of his findings which were accepted by Mr. Hayes. C.D. Hayes stated he could not offer any explanation other than he had recently purchased a new whip and this may have accounted for the Veterinary Officers concerns. He further suggested that the animal was light-skinned which may have been a contributing factor. On further questioning, Mr. A. Tyrrell stated that in his opinion the marks were not very serious. Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards took no further action on this occasion.

Sheridan, who stated that when the horses started to load, a rider in the stalls suggested to him that the inner railing should be slightly moved. In view of this opinion and in the interests of safety Mr. Sheridan and his ground staff adjusted the railing accordingly which led to a delay in the off time of this race. Having considered the matter, the Raceday Stewards accepted that the delay was with good reason and therefore took no further action.
