THIS GELDING WAS TAKEN IN HAND, EXAMINED BY THE COURSE VETERINARY SURGEON AND SUBSEQUENTLY SCRATCHED. THIS INCIDENT CAUSED A DELAY TO THE START OF THIS RACE. THE STARTER REPORTED: a) GOLDEN ALEXIA (C Zackey) was stubborn loading. b) DYLAN'S CHAMP (P Strydom) jumped inwards leaving the stalls. c) APACHE CHIEF (G Lerena) jumped outwards leaving the stalls. d) FIZZLY BUBBLY (J R Syster) and IMMEDIATE EDGE (R Munger) were slow into stride. THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: a) DESTINY FULFILLED (Wes Marwing) bolted the course and was subsequently scratched by the Veterinary Surgeon.

This precluded Jockey K Matsunyane (COUNT HUHTIKUU) from fully assisting his mount out to the end of the race, f) CHIEFTAIN'S SHIELD (P Mxoli) took an awkward stride in the concluding stages. g) In view of the performance of GOLDEN ALEXIA (C Zackey), (distance 9,15 lengths, betting 4/1), the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this filly. h) Jockey D Schwarz reported that he felt something amiss with KNIGHT'S FIRE in running.
