6 1 BULB EMPEROR (J241) A Atzeni Shortly after the start became unbalanced and made heavy contact with LAPRAS.
4 2 NEBRASKAN (J304) Z Purton The Stewards opened an inquiry into Z Purton’s riding of NEBRASKAN with particular emphasis placed on the vigour he applied on the horse in the Home Straight. Evidence was taken from Jockey Purton and Trainer J Size. Z Purton explained that his instructions were to ride his mount in a forward position and after riding NEBRASKAN along in the early stages, NEBRASKAN shifted ground in the Back Straight and making the turn after the 600 Metres lay out which required him to have to apply pressure to his right rein to correct his mount. He said on entering the Home Straight NEBRASKAN continued to shift ground which impacted upon his ability to apply full vigour to the horse in the Home Straight. He added that after making contact with PRINCE OF PORTY passing the 175 Metres and with LEAN MASTER near the 150 Metres, he was then concerned that NEBRASKAN would continue to shift ground and for this reason he did not apply full vigour to NEBRASKAN between the 150 Metres and the 50 Metres. He further stated that when he was satisfied that NEBRASKAN was properly balanced, he was able to ride NEBRASKAN out to the finish over the final 50 Metres. Mr Size confirmed the instructions were to hold a forward position. After considering the evidence, the inquiry was adjourned to a date and time to be fixed. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
