| 4 | 56.0kg | 17.50 | 800m: 3rd 400m: 1st | Stewards questioned Trainer S. Morrisey regarding the filly’s performance. Mr. Morrisey expressed his opinion that the performance today was very disappointing and he could offer no explanation for the performance, given that the filly was in a nice trailing position in the event, other than that the filly may struggle to run out a strong 1600m. He added that he will freshen the filly up, and drop it back in distance for its next start. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no apparent abnormalities. | $4.80 | |||

A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be exhibiting an abnormal respiratory noise. Trainer K.
