RACE 8: KINGSTON TOWN CLASSIC - DEC 5 HANDICAP M An objection lodged by Jockey C. Parnham rider of the third placed DANISH DELIGHT against HOPETOWN (J. Brown) being declared the winner, alleging interference just prior to straightening was dismissed. When considering the evidence, Stewards were mindful that HOPETOWN had shifted outwards approaching the 300m when VITAL RESERVE (C. Johnston- Porter) had lay outwards at this section of the race presenting HOPETOWN with a clear run, however VITAL RESERVE continued to lay outwards thereafter which resulted in DANISH DELIGHT being taken further outwards and off a straight course. Stewards could not be completely satisfied that the movement of VITAL RESERVE continuing to shift outwards prior to straightening was entirely to blame for HOPETOWN shifting outwards at the 400m to obtain a run and therefore dismissed the objection.
