THE STARTER REPORTED: a) WALT WHITMAN (S Veale) jumped slow, losing two lengths. b) MY BEST SHOT (R Fourie), THE MASK (JP van der Merwe) and SAKURAJIMA (M Yeni) were slow into stride. THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: a) SAKURAJIMA recorded a TCO2 concentration of more than 36 mmol/L. Trainer K Mitchley was advised that a second blood specimen would be collected. This specimen was of an acceptable TCO2 level. b) Jockey JP van der Merwe reported that THE MASK choked up in running and he did not persevere with his riding from the 300m. The Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. Stable Employee MP Cloete was advised to report back should she find anything amiss with this gelding on her return to the stables. c) At approximately the 250m WALT WHITMAN (S Veale) was directed outwards sharply to avoid the heels of THE MASK (JP van der Merwe), which had come to the end of its run. d) Jockey R Fourie (MY BEST SHOT) briefly lost his left-side stirrup iron shortly before the finish line. e) ON MY HONOUR, the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Stable Employee MP Cloete signed on behalf of Trainer GS Kotzen.
