GENERAL
 
Stewards conducted a track inspection at 7:00am on Saturday 22/10/16 and deemed the track suitable for racing. After receiving a further 6mm of rain, Stewards conducted a further track inspection at 9:00am on Saturday 22/10/16 and found the track to be unsafe due to surface water. After consultation with the Central Warrego Race Club and Racing Queensland, Stewards postponed the meeting until Sunday 23/10/16, with the following changes to race times:
 
R1 – 12.30pm, R2 – 1.00pm, R3 – 1.30pm, R4 – 2.00pm, R5 – 2.30pm
 
The following runners were scratched due the postponement:
R1 – THAT’S CORRECT
R2 – COOLBIE, SNAKE ATTACK
R3 – FERRIGNO
R4 – REPO ZEST
R5 – GIRLS SAY
 
Jockey C. Bryen was unable to attend the meeting due to the postponement and replacements were made as per the raceday summary.
 
Stewards conducted a track inspection at 6.00am on Sunday 23/10/16 and were satisfied the track was safe for racing.

1ST – GOLD BONANZA 2ND – NOOR DROPPER 3RD – TONGUE OF FIRE 4TH – BRITISH BULLDOG
 
POLAR BLITZ – Slow to begin. Stewards questioned Apprentice N. Morton regarding the tactics adopted on the gelding, in particular her decision to shift wider on the track near the 600m. Apprentice Morton advised Stewards that the instructions had been to stay near the rail, however POLAR BLITZ raced keenly in the middle stages and she was forced to shift wider to avoid clipping heels. Stewards noted the explanation.
