Due to the notable delay in race 4, this resulted in the introduction of the Jockeys riding in the international races and the playing of the national anthems running over time and a subsequent significant delay to the start of this Race. AFRICAN ADVENTURE and AL BORAK were slow into stride. WHAT A JOKER jumped inwards. HARTLEYFOUR was slow, losing 3 lengths. Trainer Magner was advised to re-school this gelding before its next engagement. Approaching the 300m HARTLEYFOUR had to ease when awkwardly placed on the heels of WHAT A JOKER, which shifted in away from the crop. Jockey Norton signed an Admission of Guilt for contravening in that he, as the rider of WHAT A JOKER, failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to HARTLEYFOUR at approximately the 300m. Jockey Norton was suspended from riding in races for a period of 7 days. AL BORAK was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: RIGA D'ORA - post-race distress.
