Prior to the ‘All Clear’ being given, an objection was lodged by Jockey HS Gill, the rider of NEVERUNCONDITIONAL placed 4th against DETERMINE TO WIN (WK Yan), placed 2nd on grounds of alleged interference from the 900M to the 800M. After considering all the evidence, the Panel of Stewards were of the opinion that the alleged interference had not affected the result of the race. The objection was overruled and the Judge’s results stood.
Post-race veterinary examinations of SUPER GOOD (KC Wong) revealed no obvious abnormality.
