Stewards acting under the provisions of AR8(a) permitted country apprentice Nicole Seymour to ride at today’s meeting due to insufficient riders being available.
 
Race 1: Ray White Rockhampton City Normie Fox Memorial Maiden Plate 1400m
 
TINARAU MAUBOY – Reared as the start was effected losing considerable ground and effectively taking no competitive part in the event. Correct weight was delayed when rider and connections wished to view the start. After viewing the film, Stewards were satisfied that the mare was afforded a fair start and correct weight was declared. A warning was placed on the mare regarding its starting manners.
 
TRUST ISSUES – Began awkwardly and lost ground. Hung out and proved difficult to ride over the final 200 metres.
 
LENNON’S PADDOCK – Slow into stride. Raced three wide without cover throughout.
 
SCOTTISH LAD – Shifted out under pressure over the final 250 metres of the event.
 
 
Race 2: Ray White Rockhampton City Shorty Unwin Memorial Class 3 Plate 1600m
 
AUSSIE TYCOON – Trainer T Button was fined $100 for the late declaration of D Evans as rider. Bounded as the start was effected and lost ground.
 
RUFFY ROAD – Began fairly and shortly thereafter steadied from the heels of LITTLE HUNTER before racing in a rearward position. Over raced in the early and middle stages. When questioned regarding the tactics adopted, Jockey Hayse advised Stewards that his instructions were to go back at the start and ride the gelding with cover in an attempt that it may finish off in a more competitive manner. Stewards questioned Trainer G Elliott regarding a possible change of tactics adopted on the gelding today. Mr Elliott noted that the gelding had drawn the widest in a field of five and with speed expected from ONEMORE EMOTION and SWINGAHINCH he thought the best option would be to not to contest and early lead and settle as close as possible. Whilst Stewards noted the explanation, Trainer G Elliott was reminded of his obligation to ensure that any possible change of tactics are notified.
 
ONEMORE EMOTION – Began moderately.
 
Race 3: Ray White Rockhampton City Alan Hart Memorial Class 1 Handicap 1200m
 
SNOOZE – Began awkwardly.
 
SOUTHERN SPECIAL – Bumped as the start was effected.
 
FUN FOR ME – Jockey M Gray was fined $100 for using his whip on more than 5 occasions prior to the 100 metres.
 
STREET BOY – Tired over the concluding stages. Underwent a post-race veterinary examination which determined that the gelding has sustained an injury to the near fore tendon. Trainer A Suli was advised the gelding would require a veterinary clearance prior to the resumption of racing.
 
BAUHINIA STORM – Stewards acceded to a late gear request in that the gelding would be permitted to race in blinkers. Trainer S Sigvart was fined $200 for failing to effect a gear change within the prescribed time.
 
Race 4: Ray White Rockhampton City Property Management Ratings Band 0-50 Handicap 1400m
 
MAGIC SCENE – Raced three wide majority.
 
ISIS DE VEGA – Stewards permitted Jockey M Barnham to rider the mare 1 kilogram overweight as no other rider was available. Began awkwardly. Hung in leaving the 200 metres.
 
STAR FROM HEAVEN – Began awkwardly and bumped shortly after. Momentarily tightened leaving the 200 metres.
 
 
 
Race 5: Ray White Rockhampton City Sales & Marketing Class 6 Plate 1100m
 
MONO LAD – Began awkwardly.
 
MYSTIC FORCES – Began awkwardly.
 
CRUISE POWER – Raced three wide throughout. Stewards questioned Jockey D Hayse regarding the tactics adopted. Jockey Hayse advised that his instructions were to race in a forward position and nearing the 800 metres when racing three wide he was of the view that MYSTIC FORCES, which was racing to his inside, may have taken cover but shortly thereafter its rider elected to push forward and retain its position thus leaving CRUISE POWER three wide. Stewards noted his comments.
