Rider L Allen dropped her whip near the 200m. Raced three wide throughout the event. Shifted in under pressure over the concluding stages.

Laid out in the early stages and a short distance later had to be steadied when awkwardly placed at the heels of NAYTELLRHI BIRD approaching the 600m. Disappointed for a run between A GIOOD CHANCE and NO BETTER AFFAIRE approaching the 100m.

Rider T. Brooker reported the horse was inclined to lay out rounding the home turn. Placed in restricted room and had to be steadied over final 100m when SONGZILLA shifted ground. L Allen, rider of SONGZILLA, was reprimanded under AR131(a) for careless riding in this incident.

Began awkwardly and lost ground. At the winning post placed in restricted room and contacted the running rail and became severely unbalanced when RAMTASTIC was taken in by A GOOD CHANCE. H Richardson, rider of A GOOD CHANCE, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under AR131(a) in that she permitted her mount to shift in when insufficiently clear of RAMTASTIC which was taken resulting in DREAM WEAVING being checked. The licence of H Richardson to ride in races was suspended for a period of 7 days to commence midnight 13th August up to and including midnight 20th August 2022.

Slow to begin and then unable to muster speed in the early stages. Rider E MacPherson reported in her opinion COPPER SUNSET would be better suited to races over a longer distance than that of today.
