General
Due to the meeting being rescheduled from Sunday 27 June 2021 resulting in multiple riders being unable to attend today’s race meeting, stewards permitted the riding changes as per the stewards race day summary.
 
Race 1: THE REAL GROUP PRESENTS WILLIAM PIKE Maiden Handicap 1500 metres
 
The start of this race was delayed owing to the bridle of REFUTATION being required to be replaced behind the barriers after it broke during the loading process.
 
BOOM RAIDER – Slow to begin. Rider R. Wiggings was fined $800 under AR132(7)(a)(ii) for using his whip on six occasions prior to the 100m, one more than permitted. In determining penalty stewards took into account this was Jockey Wiggings twelfth offence since 8 August 2020.
 
GOLD CHORUS – Slow to begin.
 
AVESUM PIXIE DUST – Jumped away awkwardly.
 
THORBEN – Laid in when placed under pressure in the home straight.
 
Race 2: COLIN & RUBY DODSON MEMORIAL Class 6 Handicap 1100 metres
 
Correct weight was delayed to allow Stewards to consider a protest lodged by R Stewart, rider of 3rd placegetter, PRINCESS RULES, against LINGALONGA LASS and THE EGYPTIAN, who dead heated for first, alleging interference over the final 200m. Stewards also considered a protest lodged by R Wiggins, rider of PRINCESS RULES, against LINGALONGA LASS who dead heated for first, alleging interference over the final 200m. Stewards also considered a protest lodged by D Johnston, Trainer of LINGALONGA LASS against THE EGYPTIAN, who dead heated for first, alleging interference over the final 200m. After considering all the evidence Stewards found that approaching the 150m PRINCESS RULES shifted out marginally contacting the hind quarters of LINGALONGA LASS resulting in LINGALONGA LASS being turned in and brushing PRINCESS RULES for a number of strides. Stewards also found that THE EGYPTIAN laid out under pressure over the concluding stages but made minimal contact with PRINCESS RULES.  Bearing in mind the initial contact between PRINCESS RULES and LINGALONGA LASS and the lack of any significant interference resulting from this shift to THE EGYPTIAN, Stewards dismissed all protests.
