Stewards Comments:
FIMISTON FAME jockey dropped his whip passing the 325m. When questioned on his reasons for racing in a forward position as opposed to the gelding's usual pattern of racing race in a rearward position, however the gelding commenced to overrace when racing wide in the early stages. He therefore elected to allow the gelding to stride. MY HATRAS was slow to begin. DIAMOND BLUE CHIP jockey dropped his whip passing the 450m.
