----Mr Ydgren showed a video replay of the final 200-300 metres of the Race. He said that the Stipendiary Stewards had counted at least 20 strikes with the whip. He said that there were a number of "fakes" or "dummy hits" which would bring the number up to about 25. This was accepted by Mr Dunn.
----Mr Ydgren said that Mr Dunn had not previously breached the Rule and recommended a fine of $200.
----Mr Dunn indicated that he preferred a fine to a period of suspension. He asked the Committee to take into account his junior driver status.
----The Committee, in arriving at penalty, took into account the submissions of the parties, Mr Dunn's admission of the breach and his previous good record.
----Mr Dunn was fined the sum of $200.
