Stipes Report

THE STARTER REPORTED:

a)	GREEN GARNET (S Moodley) and GREEN GATEWAY (C Zackey) jumped slow, losing one length.

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: 

a)	Shortly after the start, ONE LINER (M Yeni) was buffeted between STAR MAJOR (L Mxothwa) and STREET OUTLAW (C Orffer). 
b)	Jockey C Little did not persevere with his riding of FREEDOM FIGHTER from the 250m and thereafter reported that he felt something amiss with this colt. The Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine. 
c)	In view of the performances of ESCARPMENT (*B Plaatjies) and VICTOR HUGO (S Khumalo), which from outside draws elected to race on the outside of the racecourse, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these geldings.
d)	The Stewards had reason to question Jockeys A Domeyer (MAURITIUS KESTREL), S Moodley (GREEN GARNET) & L Mxothwa (STAR MAJOR) with regard to an incident that took place at the 800m in which STAR MAJOR (L Mxothwa), MAURITIUS KESTREL (A Domeyer) and GREEN GARNET (S Moodley) were inconvenienced while racing on the inside of STREET OUTLAW (C Orffer).  After hearing the evidence and reviewing the patrol film, the Stewards were of the opinion that there was insufficient evidence to prefer a charge against Jockey C Orffer. However, Jockey C Orffer was advised to ensure that he is sufficiently clear of other runners before allowing his mounts to shift ground in similar circumstances. 
e)	ONE LINER, the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer M Rix was advised. (TJ)
