S Hillebrand rider of seconded placed ALCARNTSPELL lodged on objection against BUCK ‘N’ SPIN being declared the winner alleging interference rounding the home turn.

Stewards having heard the evidence from the parties involved and viewing the stewards patrol film, dismissed the objection and declared carried weight.

It was established that when taking a tight run on the inside of BUCK ‘N’ SPIN, ALCARNTSPELL had a tendency to lay out and for this reason was impeded for a short distance near 400 metres.
