Race 1. JOHNSTON GRADER HIRE & S N GABBERT CONSTRUCTIONS MAIDEN PLATE 1200m
 
BOSSUKA – Exremely fractious in the parade yard. Became cast on the perimeter fence and dislodged Jockey J Hoopert. Withdrawn by order of Stewards at 1.20pm. Prior to the declaration of Correct Weight Stewards ordered that all monies wagered on Bossuka be refunded in full and further that all successful wagers placed on the event prior to the time of scratching be subject to deductions of 46 cents in the dollar win and 35 cents in the dollar place on the face value of the betting ticket. A subsequent Veterinary examination of the gelding revealed no abnormalities. Trainer Mr D Smith was advised Bossuka would be required to trial satisfactorily under race day conditions prior to next race start. Jockey Hoopert was examined by QAS officers and passed fit to fulfil his remaining engagements.

BACCHUR – Raced wide in the early and middle stages.

Race 5. MCKINLAY SHIRE COUNCIL BENCHMARK 65 HANDICAP 1350m
 
Jockey R McMahon was fined the sum of $200 under the provisions of AR127 after committing to ride both EMPIRE GAMES and WARRUMBUNGLE in this event. As Jockey McMahon was to be unable to make weight on EMPIRE GAMES, Stewards ordered that he fulfil the engagement to ride WARRUMBUNGLE.
