Stipes Report

THE START OF THIS RACE WAS DELAYED DUE TO LAVA LAMP (K MATSUNYANE) PROVING RELUCTANT TO PROCEED TO THE START AND HAVING TO BE LED BY A HANDLER.

THE STARTER REPORTED:
a)	BOLD ACTION (G Lerena) jumped awkwardly outwards, making contact with the left-side front gate leave	leaving the stalls.
b)	FIRE ON FIRE (D Schwarz) and INTO DANCING (*T Mayhew) were slow losing one length. 	

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED:
a)	LAVA LAMP (K Matsunyane) proved reluctant to canter to the start and had to be led by a Handler. Trainer R Klaasen was advised that should this filly behave in a similar manner in future, she may be suspended.

c)	FIRE ON FIRE (D Schwarz) over-raced in the early and middle stages. 
d)	At approximately the 400m, INTO DANCING (*T Mayhew) was carried by HARPER'S WAY (P Mxoli),
