Stipes Report

THE START OF THIS RACE WAS DELAYED DUE TO FUTURE DATE (M YENI) PROVING RELUCTANT TO PROCEED TO THE START AND HAVING TO BE LED BY A HANDLER.

THE STARTER REPORTED:
a)	SAY IT WITH ROSES (*G Samo-Burthia) was slow into stride.	

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED:
a)	FUTURE DATE (M Yeni) proved intractable cantering to the start. This filly is suspended in terms of Rule 93.2.4, until such time as she proves tractable cantering to the start on a raceday. Stable Employee P de Palma, acting on behalf of Trainer S J Gray, was advised (DR). 	 	
b)	Shortly before the finish line, MOUNTAIN HIGH (C Zackey), TOO LATE MY MATE (C Habib) and PALACE DANCER (G Lerena) were carried in by ACCEPT COOKIES (R Fourie), which hung in from the 200m. 
c)	CEUTA (C Murray), the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis.	
Trainer D Nieuwenhuizen advised (MS).
