THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: a) Shortly after the start, Apprentice B Plaatjies was unbalanced when GRAVITY took an awkward stride and shifted outwards leaving the stalls. As a consequence, GRAVITY (*B Plaatjies) was slow into stride. b) Jockey C Orffer (PUSHING LIMITS), which raced in advance of the field in the early stages and tired quickly, reported that he felt something amiss with this gelding.

(Dr E Reynders) c) Jockey D Ashby reported that MRS SHACKLETON, which was steadied briefly at the 400m when tightened for galloping room between OVER THE ATLANTIC (J Solomons) and GRAVITY (*B Plaatjies), did not stride out freely in running.
