SWEET TRIAL jumped inwards leaving the stalls. INSIDE POLITICS nudged the front gate open which was reset. Thereafter INSIDE POLITICS jumped awkwardly losing one length. TOUCH OF FATE broke through the front gate, was restrained by the rider, returned to the start, examined by the Course Veterinary Surgeon, passed fit to race and reloaded. The Starting Stall Certificate for this gelding has been withdrawn. In view of the Starter's report with regard to TOUCH OF FATE, this gelding was suspended for a period of 7 days and until recertified tractable loading and jumping on terms with a companion. TOUCH OF FATE may not be presented for repassing during this period. Shortly after the start, COLOUR OF LIGHT and STRIKEITLIKEAMATCH came together and bumped. In view of the performance of TOUCH OF FATE, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. Apprentice Ferraris reported that COLOUR OF LIGHT made an - abnormal respiratory noise in running. Apprentice Tarentaal reported that INDIAN SONG did not stride out freely in running. In the concluding stages, TOUCH OF FATE was brushed in by STRIKEITLIKEAMATCH which shifted in away from the crop. VARIMAX was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. INSIDE POLITICS raced equipped with alumites in front and unshod behind. Vet: TOUCH OF FATE -mouth injury. COLOUR OF LIGHT - no abnormal respiratory noise detected post race. INDIAN SONG - not striding out right front. Scratched: VARTANIUM - overreached.
