Race 1: COUNTRY CLUB HOTEL/MJ CLEANERS MAIDEN PLATE 1000m
 
MISTER QUICKSTEP- After being kicked by another runner in the mounting yard underwent a pre-race veterinary examination at the barriers and was passed fit to start. Stood flat footed as the start was affected and lost ground. Trainer J Brown was advised the gelding would be required to obtain a further barrier certificate prior to again being permitted to start in a race. Raced keenly leaving the 800m and hung out passing the 600m. Laid in under pressure down the running and became momentarily awkwardly placed on heels near the 100m as a result.
 
HEAD DE VEGAS- Began awkwardly.
 
DEDORS LAD- Momentarily crowded leaving the 800m. Hung out passing the 700m.
 
DARK ORIGINS- Dipped leaving the 800m and laid out passing the 700m.
 
CELESTIAL LASS- Taken wider by another runner which hung out leaving the 700m.
 
MISS KITIVA- Hung out passing the 700m taking another runner wider. Shifted in under pressure down the running.

MAH PRECIOUS- Shifted in under pressure over the final 100m.
 
BACHVARA- Shifted in under pressure down the running.
 
BARNSBURY- On returning to the mounting yard was found to have bled from both nostrils in running. Trainer S Sixtus was advised that as this was the second such occurrence the mare would now be barred from racing in Australia under the provisions of AR79.
 
 
 
Race 2: K & A BUILDING QTIS RATINGS BAND 0-60 HANDICAP 1200m
 
TINDER- Stewards accepted the reasons tendered by Trainer S Sixtus for the late declaration of rider on the mare. Bumped on jumping.
 
PRITI PIPER- Began awkwardly and bumped on jumping. Shifted in under pressure down the running, laying in passing the winnig post crowding another runner.
 
SHOTGUN SOCKS- Raced keenly down the back straight. Raced wide for the majority. Performed below market expectations. Jockey N Keal advised that the gelding, in his opinion, didn’t appreciate the undulating racing surface or the kickback in running. Stewards noted the explanation.
 
LONGSHOT LIZZIE- Performed below market expectations. Jockey N Masuda advised that, in his opinion, the mare never travelled well throughout the event. Trainer T Dougall advised that he was disappointed with the performance. A post-race veterinary examination failed to reveal any significant abnormalities. Trainer Dougall undertook to advise Stewards should anything become apparent regarding the mares condition in the coming days.
 
PENNYWORTH- Raced keenly leaving the 800m. Shifted in under pressure down the running becoming awkwardly placed on heels over the concluding stages before becoming crowded passing the winning post.
 
 
Declaration of correct weight was delayed to allow connections of 3rd place getter PENNYWORTH to review the footage of the concluding stages. After viewing the footage Connections elected not to proceed with any objection and Stewards subsequently declared correct weight on the Judges semaphored numbers.
 
 
Following the running of this event Stewards and a delegation of senior riders inspected a section of the track between the 800-600m. On inspection it was identified that in the area of the 700-650m the racing surface was deteriorating more so than the remainder. Club officials undertook to perform remedial works between races for the remainder of the day to mitigate this issue.
 
 
Race 3: QUEENSLAND COUNTRY BANK STAMPEDE QUALIFIER OPEN HANDICAP 1000m
 
The start of this race was delayed when it was identified, prior to runners entering the mounting yard, that the barriers had been placed at the incorrect starting position and were required to be re-positioned.
 
 
MMOSCINI- Slow into stride.
 
BEST TO HURRY- Bumped on jumping. Raced wide for the majority.
 
MR VISTA- Hung out passing the 700m resulting in runners to its outside being taken wider. Commenced to lose ground from that point. Shifted out under pressure passing the 150m and bumped. Jockey S Lacy stated on returning to scale that her mount failed to travel after hanging out passing the 700m.

TYCOON DANCER- Underwent a pre-race veterinary examination and was passed fit to start. Reluctant to load. Raed wide for tha majority. Lost a near fore plate in running.

Laid in soon after entering the home straight. Shifted out and away from another runner passing the 150m. Taken wider by another runner passing the winning post.

FLOWER- Shifted in under pressure down the running Raced wide for the majority.
 
 
Prior to the declaration of correct weight connections of 2nd placegetter LYNRIC LASS lodged an objection against 1st placegetter DREAMSEEKER alleging interference down the home straight. After taking evidence from the riders and connections involved and viewing the patrol footage it was determined that LYNRIC LASS did shift out and away from DREAMSEEKER near the 100m and was taken wider by that runner passing the winning post. Stewards were of the opinion that given the severity of the interference, the proximity of part of the interference to the winning post and the beaten margin, Stewards could not be comfortably satisfied that had the interference not occurred LYNRIC LASS would have finished ahead of DREAMSEEKER and subsequently dismissed the protest and ordered correct weight on the Judges placings.
