Stewards inquired into an incident that occurred near the 200m and into the final straight where Wayne Hill (GLEN ELGIN TOMSON NZ) appeared to almost become dislodged from the sulky and MAJOR MAD (Jason Kittel) that was racing to his inside broke gait.

Hill becoming unbalanced in the sulky. As a result, GLEN ELGIN TOMSON NZ shifted in shortly afterwards and MAJOR MAD broke gait. J.
