Stipes Report

THE STARTER REPORTED:

a)	ROGUE MALE (K Steyn) was stubborn loading.
b)	COSMIC EMPIRE (S Khathi) was nervous in the stalls and rushed the front gates of the stalls.
c)	NAIROBI (L Mxothwa) and MISS UNITED STATES (M Mjoka) were slow into stride.

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: 

a)	In view of the performance of LAST SURVIVOR (JP van der Merwe), which gave ground to the field quickly and was not persevered with from the 700m, the veterinary surgeon was requested to examine this gelding.
b)	In view of the performance of GREEK MAFIA (R Fourie), which was not persevered with from the 150m, the veterinary surgeon was requested to examine this gelding.
c)	Jockey D Ashby (ST PATRICK'S DAY) was advised by the Stewards that they had sufficient reason to question his riding in the concluding stages in relation to whether he had ridden his mount to the finish line. The Stewards reviewed the patrol film from various angles with Jockey D Ashby and advised him that, in their opinion, there was sufficient doubt as to whether he had ridden to the finish, but this was not to the requisite degree to sustain a charge relating to if he could have finished in 4th position. Jockey D Ashby was advised to ensure that his riding is not open to query in future.
