THE STARTER REPORTED: a) SIEGE OF ORLEANS (M Yeni) lost one length. THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED : a) Jockey M Yeni reported that he felt something amiss with SIEGE OF ORLEANS in the running.

Accordingly, a penalty of a fine of R2500 was imposed. In assessing this matter, the Stewards carefully considered the patrol video of Jockey T Godden's crop use during the Race and established that he had used his crop on 6 occasions without excessive force. In addition, Jockey T Godden's clean record was considered and that there was no evidence of any intent on his part. Nevertheless, the Stewards considered the Veterinary Surgeon's report and the importance of horse welfare and that any injury to a horse in similar circumstances, as reported by the Veterinary Surgeon warrants a sanction. d) Jockey J Gates signed an admission of guilt for a contravention of Rule 58.10.2, read in conjunction M, in that he mis-used his crop by striking the horse JUST VIRGINIA more than 12 times in the entire race.
