Race 1: Kilcoy Exchange Hotel Class 4 H’cap – 1060m
 
YOUR OPTION – Jumped very awkwardly resulting in the saddle slipping badly to the nearside.
As a result of this jockey Cheshire was placed at a severe disadvantage and positioned her horse wider on the track and approaching the 400m was eased down as a result.  
 
IGNITE THE LIGHT – Slow to begin. Placed in restricted room leaving the 900m and had to
 be restriained when CHAMBERLAIN shifted in.  As a rsult of this incident, jockey H. Phillips,
rider of CHAMBERLAIN, was reprimanded.
 
CHAMBERLAIN – Slow to begin.
 
CHOCOLATE OREO – Approaching the 800m was obliged to check when placed in restricted
room between ALEJANDRA, which shifted in, ,and CHAMBERLAIN, which shifted out. Both
jockey C. Eaton, rider of ALEJANDRA, and H. Phillips, rider of CHAMBERLAIN, were advised to
exercise more care in similar circumstances.

BROOKER AVENUE – Slow to begin.
 
SET TO SIZZLE –  Slow to begin.  Had to be restrained from heels near the 900m. Jockey Tomizawa was asked to comment on the performance. He stated he had been instructed to ride forward from the wide alley, however after being slow to begin was obliged to settle the  horse in a position in the second half of the field. He added that the horse was bumped by other runners at various points during the race and he did not feel that the horse travelled comfortably on the  tight racing circuit. A post race veterinary examination revealed soreness across the back.  Connections were advised that a veterinary clearance must be supplied prior to the horse racing again.
 
BLAZING HARADA – Hung out and did not stretch out over the final 200m. A post race veterinary examination found the horse to have suffered a laceration and bruising to the heel of the near fore and also lost its off hind plate, which also resulted in a portion of  the horse’s hoof being removed.   Trainer J. Dixon indicated the horse would now be sent for a spell following this injury.   Stewards advised Mr Dixon that if he does not spell the horse he would be required to provide a veterinary certificate prior to the horse’s next race start.

CORAJILLO – Hung badly from the 400m until entering the home straight.

Tightened for roo near the 900m and had to be steadied when placed in restricted room to the inside of ARCING HARD, which shifted in as a result of steading when tightened to the inside of BEACH CLUB, which shifted in.

ACKER’S WAY – Near the 400m was placed in restricted room and had to be steadied.
 
MISS MACPHERSON – Raced wide for the majority of the race.
 
Following the running of this event safety concerns were raised regarding a section of the track near the 800m.   After discussing this and viewing the patrol footage, it was decided that stewards would allow riders  in Race 5 to also observe the footage before taking a delegation of senior riders to inspect that section of the track near the 800m.  Upon inspection it was found that slip marks were present, consistent with a horse slipping and blundering.   Following further discussions with the jockeys and stewards considerations, the meeting was abandoned at 3.57 pm.
