Race 1: SKY THOROUGHBRED CENTRAL MAIDEN H’CAP – 1640M
 
OSCAR THE ENCOSTA – Trainer B. Smith advised that the horse would be ridden in a forward position. Inconvenienced shortly after the start and as a result was ridden in a rearward position.
 
MAKING SHADOWS – Trainer L. Birchley advised that the horse would be ridden in a forward position. Settled behind the leader.
 
INVERARAY – Trainer B. Smith advised that the horse, which led at its last start, would be restrained to obtain cover if circumstances permit. Began awkwardly. Overraced in the early stages before being allowed to stride forward and crossed to the lead near the 1200m.
 
LUJAC – Shifted out under pressure in the straight and was difficult to ride out.
 
KITTY – Severely crowded between runners shortly after jumping.
 
Race 2: WWW.BRC.COM.AU QTIS 2YO MAIDEN PLATE – 1050M
 
RELIABLE LASS – Overraced in the early stages and then near the 700m raced tight against the running rail for a short distance.
 
THOR FOOT – Began awkwardly and lost ground.
 
Race 3: HAMILTON HOTEL CLASS 4 H’CAP – 1200M
 
COMACINA – Shifted a plate in the preliminary, refitted behind the barriers. Stood flat-footed when the gates opened and missed the start considerably.
 
MAJELLA MAGIC – Began awkwardly.
 
SHE’S WORTHY – Began awkwardly, resulting in its rider striking her left shoulder.
 
Race 4: GA SEASON PASS CLASS 3 PLATE – 1640M
 
EL GRECO – Connections advised that the horse would be ridden more forward if circumstances permit. The horse was ridden accordingly.
 
ADHERE – Overraced in the early and middle stages, had to be shifted out by its rider near the 1200m and strode forward to a position outside the lead.
 
BOCAGE – Began awkwardly. N. Day explained that the intention had been from the inside gate to ride in a handy position. He said after the mare began awkwardly he did not wish to race in a rearward position on the rail and for this reason immediately shifted to the outside of WALWA. He said rounding the turn near the 1400m it became obvious that WALWA was not intending to race near the rail and as BOCAGE was left three wide without cover, he felt he had little option but to restrain and shift back towards the rail and save ground. He said that after this the horse travelled only fairly in the run and then just prior to straightening he had to steady when caught between the heels of ROAD TO THE BAY and SAIL THE STARS, both of which commenced to weaken. His explanation was accepted. Trainer R. Heathcote’s stable representative confirmed that the horse would be sent for an immediate spell.
 
PEPPA JELLY – Crowded slightly at the start.
 
Race 5: GALLOPERS SPORTS CLUB F&M BENCHMARK 65 H’CAP – 1050M
 
SORORITY SISTER – Apprentice R. Williams stated that after being crossed the tempo steadied in front and when PRIMED FOR DESTINY shifted away from the rails she elected to stride forward to try to race outside the lead, however when she made that decision, THORSBORNE then shifted her horse away from behind the leader, which resulted in her being left three wide for the trip.
 
Race 6: DOREEN BIRD C,G&E BENCHMARK 65 H’CAP – 1050M
 
KLAMMER – Had to be severely checked near the 800m when crossed by EXCELARTIE, which was taken in by THE AMBASSADORE. R. Fradd, the rider of THE AMBASSADORE, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding in that he permitted his mount to shift in at that point, causing EXCELARTIE to be taken in across the running of KLAMMER. Jockey Fradd’s licence to ride in races was suspended for a period of 12 days, to commence at midnight on Saturday 7 January and expire at midnight on Thursday 19 January 2017.
 
DEEPEST – Raced three wide without cover.
 
EXCELARTIE – Taken inwards by another runner near the 800m.
 
Race 7: BRC MEMBERSHIPS RATINGS BAND 0 – 60 H’CAP – 2040M
 
SCARLET POET – Caught wide in the early stages, and with no speed on apprentice T. Brooker elected to allow her mount to stride forward.
 
ALL RIGGED UP – Had to be checked from heels at the 1100m due to the slow tempo.
 
KHADIJA – Bounded at the start and lost ground. Had to be steadied near the 900m when racing tight.

Race 8: WEDDINGS AT BRC CLASS 2 H’CAP – 1350M
 
LE DUDE – Had to be steadied near the 1200m when crowded momentarily.
 
SAYS ME – R. Fradd was reminded of his obligations to ride his mounts out right to the finish.
 
KNOWING FRANK – Making the first turn near the 900m when the tempo steadied, had to be checked and shifted out to avoid heels and as a result raced three wide without cover thereafter.
 
MARTIAL ART – Reared as the start was effected and lost considerable ground.
 
SUPERSAY – Slow into stride.
 
GALWAY TOWN – Raced four wide without cover.
