Foley, placed second, and Toll Stone, ridden by W.J. Lee, placed third, where it appeared W.J. Lee had to take a check. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. In his evidence W.J. Lee stated that the two leaders rolled left close to the finish forcing him to take a check. S. Foley stated that his mount was tiring when he rolled slightly left close to the finish. C.D.

Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards took no further action
