Race 5 DogZone Maiden Sprint Heat 4 - C0q - 295 Heat 4 This race was delayed by one minute at the request of Raceday Control. MOBILIZE (1) weighed in 2.6 kgs under its last race weight with this being a planned weight reduction for new trainer D Stapleton. MAYBE WHAT (3) and CHARLIE NEXT BOY (8) were both slow to jump. ANOTHER CRUISE (7) ran sharply inwards in the initial stages badly checking BUTTERFLY TERRA (6) which collided with EDELWEISS (4). MOBILIZE ran outwards in the back straight causing tightening to HOMEBUSH INQUIRY (2) and BUTTERFLY TERRA with ANOTHER CRUISE also checked.

Race 6 DogZone Maiden Sprint Heat 5 - C0q - 295 Heat 5 SACAJAWEA (4) was slow to jump. ANOTHER JAMIE (8) crashed inwards in the early stages causing severe tightening to KNOW STRUGGLE (7), EUG THE SCROOGE (6) and ILABB (5). ANOTHER JAMIE continued to run inwards checking FIRST OFFICER (3) which had been turned and was angling outwards. EUG SCROOGE received a severe check into the bend when racing to the outside of FIRST OFFICER. Stewards viewed the replay of the initial stages of the race in regards to the racing manners of ANOTHER JAMIE. After taking into account that this was the dog's first start and the considerable interference that occurred it was decided that the dog be given the benefit of the doubt as to whether marring had occurred but this dog's manners will be closely watched in its immediate starts.
Race 7 Islington Tavern Maiden Stakes - C0 - 520 KNOW WORTH (3) and BENJAMIN BLACK (4) were the last pair on jumping. WRINKLES (1) shifted up the track in the run to the first bend checking JINJALESS (8). Soon after BENJAMIN BLACK ran inwards checking KNOW WORTH which lost ground.

WRINKLES finished at the rear with a post race veterinary check revealing no irregularities.
Race 8 Happy Birthday Barry Free Dash - C1 - 295 HOMEBUSH STEW (1) weighed in 3 kgs above its last race weight with this being a planned weight increase after a long spell. LUMINARY (3), HOMEBUSH RILEY (7) and JEWEL APACHE (8) were the last trio at the jump. TOKEN JUMP (4) was badly checked into the bend after dragging HOMEBUSH RILEY down with this pair losing ground. This caused LUMINARY and JEWEL APACHE to run wide and be badly checked losing their chances.
