THE STARTER REPORTED: a) TRIP TO NEBRASKA (R Venniker) lost 2 lengths. b) THE GREEN GALLANT (R Khathi) lost 3 lengths.

Accordingly, a penalty of a fine of R4000 was imposed. e) ONLY A POET (T Godden), the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Assistant Trainer C Eudey acting on behalf of Trainer M Miller advised (DZ). JOCKEY / EQUIPMENT CHANGES : a) Nil. RACE CARD CHANGES / OTHER : a) Nil.
