The connections were spoken to regarding the dogs condition only being noticed at this late stage ,there explanation was accepted on this occassion.

Trainer Mrs M Mann was spoken to advisidly by the stewards concerning her wearing apparel that has advertising on in big letters that can be seen clearly on TV in race two on todays card and can be against the regulations when there are sponsered races
Mrs Mann was spoken to previously regarding this matter and no further warnings will be issued in the future.
There was a concern that the boxes at the 318m point for race 10 may have not opened properly to give all runners a fair chance, the concern was that the lid may have opened on an angle advantaging the inside runner, the Stewards reviewd the film several times and found that this was not the case, the starter throughly checked the boxes before race 11 and no problems with the lid or starting mechinism were found .
