LORD ROSE and KELIKOTE EXPRESS were slow into stride. PILGOVAN STAR, KALIDAR and SHOW ME HEAVEN lost 1 length. BENGAL BLUFF was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. BENGAL BLUFF shifted in at approximately the 1600 metre mark, carrying STRONG DOLLAR, who was improving to the inside of BENGAL BLUFF, inwards resulting in STRONG DOLLAR making contact with KELIKOTE EXPRESS, who in turn made contact with LORD ROSE. Apprentice Murray, the rider of STRONG DOLLAR, appeared before the Board with regard to this incident and advised to take more care when shifting ground and improving his position in the early stages of races. Thereafter KELIKOTE EXPRESS shifted in slightly, resulting in LORD ROSE and SHOW ME HEAVEN becoming cramped for galloping room for a number of strides. STRONG DOLLAR over-raced in the early stages and was hanging in, in the final straight. KELIKOTE EXPRESS, hanging in, shifted in slightly at approximately the 300 metre mark, resulting in SHOW ME HEAVEN having to be steadied off the heels of KELIKOTE EXPRESS and be switched out to obtain a clear run. Jockey Kennedy reported that he felt something amiss with SALT OF THE EARTH in the latter stages. Vet: SALT OF THE EARTH - coughing.
