In the concluding stages, STRONG WHITE which had established its racing line, one-off the inside, was carried in by SMART LIKE JASON which shifted in. As the consequence of this incident, STRONG WHITE became awkwardly placed on heels, had to ease and subsequently shift out for a clear run.

A Member of the Stipendiary Panel lodged an objection on behalf of STRONG WHITE (Y Aify), placed third, against SMART LIKE JASON (App PH Seow), placed second, on the grounds of interference in the concluding stages.

Trainer J Ong was contacted regarding appearing before the Panel for this objection, however, he advised that he had already left the course and was satisfied to be represented by his Apprentice, PH Seow, in this matter. .

After considering the evidence in this matter which included that STRONG WHITE had secured its run, SMART LIKE JASON had clearly carried STRONG WHITE of its racing line, the extent of the interference and the margin (short-head) between horses at the finish,

the Panel upheld the objection and amended the placing to:

1^st – FRENETIC (R Nuqman)

2^nd – STRONG WHITE (Y Aify)

3^rd – SMART LIKE JASON (App PH Seow)

4^th – FLAMING PHOENIX (F Yusoff)
