Stipes Report

THE STARTER REPORTED:
a)	MO START (*K J Lihaba) was slow into stride.	

THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED:
a)	Leaving the 1400m, REMAINS OF THE DAY (P Mxoli) clipped the heels of PLENILUNIO (G Lerena), which shifted out sharply when she commenced to over-race. Thereafter, this filly refused to corner and carried out KNOCKEMSTIFF (C Maujean), ACT OF POWER (N Klink) and BRIGHTEST BLAZE (*T Mayhew). As a consequence of this, the bit pulled through PLENILUNIO'S mouth, and she was eased out of the race by Jockey G Lerena. This filly is suspended in terms of Rule 93.2.5, until such time as she proves tractable jumping from the stalls and galloping around the turn on a Raceday. Trainer F P Habib advised (GF).   	
b)	MARIACHI MADNESS (*S Sosibo), the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Assistant Trainer C Naude, acting on behalf of Trainer C Binda, was advised (MS).
