Stipes Report

THE STARTER REPORTED:

a)	PASHTUNWALI (K de Melo) jumped slow, losing one length.

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED:

c) 	WHAT A THIEF (G Behr) refused to enter the parade ring. This gelding is suspended indefinitely in terms of Rule 93.2.4 until such time as he proves tractable on a race day. Trainer M Rix will be advised.
