Weather: Fine
Track: Good The track was in very good order and the meeting proceeded smoothly.
Scales: Checked and correct
Health and Safety comment: Nil

Judicial report: In race 6 ALLEGRO MASTER got down in his box immediately on being loaded and prior to the back door being closed. Due to its precarious position and due to the dogs welfare, the starter elected to remove the dog from the box and he was then placed back in and took his place in the race. While the Starter was not entirely sure that ALLEGRO MASTER had been attempting to turn, it was the Stewards decision to order that the dog complete a box trial before next racing.
