Race 1: CAMPBELLS JEWLERY QTIS BANCHMARK 60 HANDICAP 1460m
 
ROCKETHEAD- Bumped with another runner on jumping. Commenced to race ungenerously and shifted out abruptly passing the 1200m severely hampering runners to its outside and was consequently retired from the race. A post-race veterinary revealed dirt in the geldings right eye consistent with being struck by kickback. Stewards acknowledged this may have contributed to the geldings racing manners but nonetheless advised Trainer J Manzelmann the gelding would be required to trial prior to again being permitted to start in a race.
 
THE SILVER LADY- Began awkwardly, shifted in and bumped with another runner before shifting out and bumping with a further runner. Hampered by another runner which shifted out on entering into the home straight. On returning to scale Jockey W D’Avila advised that the filly had swallowed her tongue in running. Trainer Representative B Herne advised he would consider implementing a gear change to add a tongue tie to the fillies gear prior to racing again.
 
KEIGHLEY SUN- Bumped with another runner soon after jumping. Severely hampered by another runner passing the 1200m and lost significant ground.

Trainer B Johnson was advised a warning would be placed on the mares barrier manners. Inconvenienced when obliged to shift wider passing the 200m to avoid a fallen rider.

Stewards will inquire into the reason VARSITY blundered and dislodged Jockey M Haley near the 200m. Jockey Haley who sustained a leg injury in the incident, was transported by QAS to Ayr Base Hospital and was later advised by Stewards that he will require a medical clearance prior to resuming race riding. Replacement riders were engaged as per Stewards race day summary.
 
 
 
 
Race 3: NUTRIEN AG SOLUTIONS MAIDEN PLATE 2yo & UP 1000m
 
TISAYAC- Due to a clerical error Jockey J Felix was not declared as rider of the filly in the official program. On course patrons were notified of this error prior to the commencement of betting on the event.  
 
IMPULSIVE FLIGHT- As the filly was resenting the tongue tie in the mounting yard Stewards gave permission for it to race without that piece of gear.

JINK AND JIVE- Inclined to lay out under pressure down the running, momentarily hampering another runner passing the 200m. App A Donald was reminded of her obligations. Raced wide the majority.

POTAWATOMI- Race wide the majority.
 
LUCKY FOR SOME- Stewards inquired into the tactics adopted on the gelding which led by further than would be expected and subsequently compounded in the finish. Trainer M Geaney advised that his instructions had been to be positive from the wide barrier and if able to obtain an easy lead do so otherwise endeavour to settle just off the leader/s. Mr Geaney added that once obtaining the lead the gelding appeared to over-race. Jockey W D’Avila confirmed the instructions stating that whilst the gelding had been inclined to race keenly it travel comfortably throughout before commencing to tire passing the 800m. Stewards noted the explanations. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any abnormalities. A post-race blood sample was taken for analysis.
