The Raceday Stewards enquired into an incident just after the turn into the straight involving Trishuli River, ridden by J.A. Powell, placed fourth and Kudbegood, ridden by W. Joyce, unplaced, where it appeared interference occurred. Evidence was heard from the riders concerned. W. Joyce stated that he went for a gap. J.A. Powell stated that he went for the same gap but accepted that interference occurred. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards found J.A. Powell to be in breach of Rule 214 in that he had ridden carelessly and having considered his record in this regard (fourth offence), the Raceday Stewards suspended him for twelve days.
