BLAZIN BELLA – Tired over the final 600 metres to eventually be beaten 66.0 metres, after considering all circumstances, Stewards elected to take no action.

LADY VEE – During the preliminary it was reported that the mare had blood in one nostril, upon initial inspection the on-course veterinarian elected to scratch LADY VEE from the event.
