GENERAL
 
As S. Tsaikos was not attending the meeting today, a riding replacement was made in Race 2 as per the Stewards Race Day Summary.

Race 1: U14 DEVILS TJRL PREMIERS COLTS, GELDINGS & ENTIRES MAIDEN PLATE – 1400M
 
BLINKIN NOMORE – Bumped by another runner near the 600m and, as a result, bumped the running rail.
 
BRITZEL – Steadied to avoid the heels of RABOLINI which shifted in near the 500m and, as a result, lost ground. Apprentice Z. White, the rider of RABOLINI was found guilty of a charge of careless riding under AR. 131(a) in that near the 500m she failed to make sufficient effort to prevent her mount from shifting in when insufficiently clear of BRITZEL resulting in that runner being steadied and losing ground. Apprentice White’s licence to ride in races was suspended for a period of 9 days to commence at midnight on Sunday 6 October 2019 and conclude at midnight on Tuesday 15 October 2019. In determining penalty, Stewards took into consideration Apprentice White’s prior good record in relation to this rule. Jockey J. Oliver accidentally dropped his whip near the 400m. A post-race veterinary examination of the gelding, which performed below market expectation, revealed no apparent abnormalities. Jockey J. Oliver could offer no tangible explanation for the disappointing performance.
