Jockey van Rensburg reported that DUKE'S GAME took no interest in running and did not persevere with his riding from the 300m. Trainer Marwing was requested to report back to the Board on the condition of this gelding on return to stables. CAPELLA MAGNA raced wide and without cover around the turn. Jockey Kennedy reported that he felt something amiss with TUNNELOFLOVE in running. Shortly before the finish line, TYRELLS BULLET had to steady momentarily when awkwardly placed between CITY DEEP, which shifted out away from the crop and BUSH FEVER, which rolled in. BELLAGIO KING was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. When afforded the opportunity to place on record any factors which may have accounted for the improved performance, Trainer Fortune was of the opinion that the drop in class to a Maiden Handicap had accounted for the improvement. Vet: DUKE'S GAME - examined postrace, nothing obvious detected TUNNELOFLOVE - fatigued. RED ADMIRAL - mild post race distress. Scratched: CRANK IT UP - coughing.
