Stipes Report

THE STARTER REPORTED:

a)	 Fair start.	

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: 

a)	Approaching the 200m EMPIRE BLUE (R Fourie) was steadied for a number of strides when awkwardly 	placed, initially on the heels of EYJAFJALLAJOKULL (G Lerena), which shifted out slightly away from the crop 	and subsequently, between EYJAFJALLAJOKULL (G Lerena) and ACORN (M Yeni), which shifted in slightly 	away from the crop. The Stewards, after carefully assessing this incident, formed the view that a charge could 	not be preferred against an individual rider as there were circumstances surrounding this incident. 		Nevertheless, Jockey G Lerena (EYJAFJALLOJOKULL) and Jockey M Yeni (ACORN) were shown the 	patrol film from the various angles and advised that they should take all reasonable measures to ensure 	that their mounts maintain a straight course in races and are not an influence on other runners.
b)	ACORN, the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer K Mitchley was advised. 	(LM)
