As apprentice T. Brooker was indisposed due to illness, riding replacements were made as per the Stewards Race Day Summary.
 
Following advice from trainer B. Curriees horse transport driver that he had difficulty in transit with GIRL IN A MILLION (Race 3) and HIGH AFRICAINE (Race 4), both horses were examined by the veterinary surgeon after arriving on course. Following advice from the veterinary surgeon that GIRL IN A MILLION had been cast in the float en route to the track, the filly was declared a late scratching at 12 noon. HIGH AFRICAINE was cleared to race.
 
Stewards inquired into the behaviour of FREDDIE FOX TROT (Race 5) when being saddled in the sand roll. Evidence was taken from QRIC sample collection officer Ms K. Warwick, veterinary surgeon Dr S. Flynn and stable representative Mr T. Crane. Trainer L. Kelly, who was not on course, advised stewards that the gelding has been difficult to saddle throughout its career and after todayys effort it is his intention to spell the gelding. He indicated that he will undertake remedial work in an attempt to rectify the geldinggs pre-race behaviour. Stewards advised Mr Kelly that the nomination of FREDDIE FOX TROT will be refused in relation to its pre-race manners until such time as the horsees behaviour has improved.
