Stipes Report

THE STARTER REPORTED:

a)	MIDWAY (L Mxothwa) jumped inwards.
	
THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: 

a)	Shortly after the start MIDWAY (L Mxothwa), which had jumped inwards, carried COUNT WILLIAM (*B Plaatjies) inwards onto SAINT BRIGID which, in turn, made contact with CRAFT MARKET (GB) (C Zackey), which resulted in the hindquarters of CRAFT MARKET (GB) (C Zackey) being turned.
b)	Leaving the 400m SAINT BRIGID (JP van der Merwe) had to check when awkwardly placed between HIAWATHA GOLDBERG (C Little) and COUNT WILLIAM (*B Plaatjies), which was carried out by SUMMER NIGHT CITY (*S Bungane), which shifted out without correction.
Apprentice S Bungane was charged with a contravention of Rule 62.2.7 in that as the rider of SUMMER NIGHT CITY, he failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to SAINT BRIGID, COUNT WILLIAM and HIAWATHA GOLDBERG leaving the 400m. Apprentice S Bungane signed an Admission of Guilt and is suspended from riding in races for a period of 7 days. (Dates: 22/04/2025 to 28/04/2025, both dates inclusive)
