Stewards conferred with the judges regarding the margin and finishing times for 1st and 2nd place between Aston Wonder and Madam Chelsea. A clear margin of a nose was visible in the photo finish image with the actual finish time for Aston Wonder being 34.7168 compared to 34.7170 for Madam Chelsea. However, as Fasttrack is limited to three decimal places, both times were automatically rounded to 34.717 and as such no margin is displayed in Fasttrack.
