(12h19) b) Permission was granted to Trainer JVA Strydom to saddle GUTSY BABY in the holding area. c) WORLD SOPRANO over raced in the early and middle stages. d) At approximately the 200m, GUTSY BABY had to be directed outwards to avoid making contact with MONKEY'S WEDDING, which was directed outwards to obtain clear running. e) BUGLE shifted sharply outwards away from the crop at the 150m and was corrected shortly before the finish. f) Jockey MK Katjedi reported that MISS TAKES took no interest in running.
