THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED :
a) RUSSIAN ROCK (K de Melo) and SUPREME WARRIOR (G Lerena) over-raced in the early stages.
b) In the concluding stages, LINEBACKER (G van Niekerk) was carried in marginally by AL MUTHANA (AUS) (R Fourie) which shifted in away from the crop.
c) Jockey S Khumalo signed an admission of guilt for a contravention of Rule 58.10.2, read in conjunction with Guideline M, in that he misused his crop by striking the horse JET DARK more than 12 times in the entire race.

Accordingly, a fine of R4000 and a suspension from riding at two consecutive KZN Racemeetings were imposed. (Suspension dates to be advised)
