The Stewards enquired into possible interference on the home turn and in the straight involving Secret Sea, ridden by W.J. Lee, placed third, and Willesee (GB), ridden by S.

Foley stated that that his filly ran off the bend despite his best efforts to keep her straight. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Stewards were of the opinion that while Willesee had caused interference to Secret Sea she did not improve his finishing position as a result of this interference so they made no alteration to the Judge’s placings and took no further action.
