b)	PRETTY BETTY (L Mxothwa), which raced at the front of the field, commenced to hang out shortly before straightening and made its run on the outside of the racecourse. The field followed PRETTY BETTY's (L Mxothwa) outward movement and raced on the outside of the racecourse in the straight.
c)	SHE'S A KEEPER (B Fayd'Herbe) was hanging out in the closing stages.
d)	PRETTY BETTY (L Mxothwa) and KAILENE (M Winnaar) brushed at the 300m.
