WE LIGHT THE FIRE (K de Melo) lost 1 length.In the closing stages, LETABA (*J Solomons) which shifted in sharply, was carried out by CELEBRATION ROCK (AUS) (*D Schwarz), which shifted out away from the crop marginally.A member of the Stipendiary Board called a race review into the above incident.However, after reviewing the patrol films of the race and taking into consideration,in particular the dual movements of the horses involved,the Board could not be satisfied that, but for the above incident,LETABA (*J Solomons) would have finished in front of CELEBRATION ROCK (AUS) (D Schwarz). Accordingly, no further action was taken.In view of the performance of PEARL OF ASIA (G Wright) (3.90 lengths),Trainer R Hill will be requested to report back on the condition of this colt on return to stables.CELEBRATION ROCK (AUS) (*D Schwarz) the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis.Trainer P Lafferty advised.WE LIGHT THE FIRE raced fitted with cheek-pieces.Jockey S Randolph - gastroenteritis/dehydration.Stood down.
