THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED :
a)	At approximately the 250m, RALPH THE RASCAL (*S Hlengwa) and CAPTAIN WHO (A Arries), had to steady when awkwardly placed on the heels of PARMENION (*M K Katjedi), which had come to the end of its run and shifted outwards.
b)	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 mis-used his crop by striking the horse COUNT MARSH more than 12 times in the entire race. In assessing penalty, the Board considered the number of times (13) Jockey S Khumalo struck the horse COUNT MARSH, the distance over which and manner in which he used his crop and his record (4) in relation to this Rule. Accordingly, a penalty of a fine of R2500 was imposed.
