GAI Waterhouse has been granted a deferment from Racing and Appeal Disciplinary Board hearing into the raceday treatment of unplaced Melbourne Cup runner Tres Blue last Tuesday.
Waterhouse was due to appear before the board yesterday to answer a charge that an antibiotic cream called Flamazine was applied to the heel of Tres Blue on Cup morning, which is in contravention of the Australian Racing Board's new rules against raceday treatment.
Stewards allowed Tres Blue to start in the Melbourne Cup because the ointment used on the stayer does not contain any prohibited substances.
Waterhouse requested more time to seek further legal advice before answering the charge. The board will now reconvene next Friday to hear the Tres Blue inquiry.

Frenchman Mikel Delzangles, trainer of Dunaden, did appear before the board yesterday to answer a similar charger after his stayer was orally administered an anti-ulcer paste on Cup morning.
Delzangles told the board that Dunaden was given the substance daily and his stable hand Matthew Brasme didn't realise he had done anything wrong.
"I feel bad," Delzangles said. "It's not good for racing. We made a mistake and we will not do it again.
"Matthew (Brasme) didn't think he was doing anything wrong."
Racing Victoria's Integrity General Manager Dayle Brown said swabs taken from Dunaden and the paste (Twydil Stomacare) had come back clear of any prohibited substance.
Brown said stewards were not pushing for a six month disqualification as outlined in the mandatory rules set out by the Australian Racing Board in February.
Instead, Delzangles was issued with a $2000 fine for breaching the raceday treatment rule.
