THE STARTER REPORTED: a) FROM THE HIP (J Solomons) was slow into stride. b) NOBLE HERO (M Winnaar) and TYPICALLY FRENCH (M Mjoka) made contact leaving the stalls and, as a consequence, TYPICALLY FRENCH (M Mjoka) was slow into stride.

The Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. d) Jockey L Mxothwa was charged with a contravention of Rule 58.10.2 (read with Guideline M on the use of the crop) in that as the rider of REAL STUNNER he misused his crop by striking REAL STUNNER more than 12 times (13) which was not warranted when considering the circumstances of the race.
