The all clear was delayed and a public announcement was made as Stewards viewed the official replays of the event. During the running of race 7 numerous lights went out on the home turn just prior to the home straight as the greyhounds raced underneath the light. This was after racing through the usual dark section on the first turn. After watching the replays numerous times Stewards were satisfied that no greyhound had their chances materially prejudiced by the light malfunction and as such all clear was declared on the judges numbers. Stewards walked the track and inspected the lights post race with Club Staff and as the lights had commenced to illuminate the track again Stewards were comfortable to continue racing and monitor the lights.

A pre race sample was taken from Aeroplane Bob.
