After reviewing the footage available to them and hearing evidence from the Starter and other parties Stewards acting under the provision of AR204 (1) declared KALMIA a non-runner. All monies invested as a result of Kalmia being declared a non-runner were ordered to be refunded in full with the following deductions to apply to all bets placed on the winner and placegetters. Win- BUBBLE BATH- 27c , Place, 26c, 2nd place getter- THE SABBATH- 25c,and due to insufficient runners NTD on OAKFIELD BLOSSOM. Stewards subsequently declared correct weight.
