Whilst the Stewards were satisfied that the riding of A Badel, 7th placegetter, over the concluding stages did not affect the horse's finishing position, he was nonetheless reminded of his obligation to ensure that he fully rides his mounts out to the finish of the race.

Recap by phillip woo
Hayday led from gate 10 and never looked back to salute at juicy odds for a second win with a return to the level of a Valley 1,200m win in February. He will likely find things tougher yet again next time out in Class Three. Vulcanus ran on nicely near the inside for second after a rails run from midfield. It was an improved effort on a non-threatening sixth last start when retrying the Valley 1,200m. Solar River kept on third best after sitting on the leader's back from gate two. He isn't far off a win with thirds in back-toback runs. Glory B just missed a placing after tracking the speed one off the fence. It was another honest performance. Swagger Bro was doing his best work late for fifth after making his run one from the rear. He should find his mark shortly in this grade. Beauty Thunder battled away without menacing after a one-off trip from better than midfield. He couldn't back up a near win last start. Tactical Command came from last to finish next best. Great Spirit never landed a blow after a one-off trip from behind midfield. He appears from his past two starts to be on his mark following a win in March.
