Stewards inquired into an incident that occurred near the 600m reslting in CHAT TIME (Jockey J. P. Stanley) losing ground. After taking evidence from App. N. Nelson, rider of ROSE OF CLARE,, and Jockey Stanley and viewing the available video footage, stewards established that ROSE OF CLARE, which was racing to the inside of MINNIE STREET (App; A. Thomson), had shifted in and away from that mare at that stage of the race, and despite the efforts of App. Nelson had caused tightening to the running of CHAT TIME. As stewards were of the opinion that there were extenuating circumstances, they took no action other than to advise App. Nelson to exercise more care in similar circumstances.
