ABDICATE and TURN OF THE TIDE lost one length. AMROTH BAY was slow into stride. ARMALITE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. ABDICATE and JACK FRIDAY over-raced in the early stages. SIR BENJAMIN became baulked for a clear run for a number of strides at approximately the 300 metre mark. Apprentice Dillon, the rider of AMROTH BAY, had his crop accidentally struck from his hand by Jockey Jacobson, the rider of HOUSECARL, approaching the 100 metre mark. Jockey Lerena reported that he felt something amiss with BLACK PANTHER in the latter stages. Vet: BLACK PANTHER - coughing. ABDICATE - moderate post race distress. Scratched: LIGHT YEARS and RACING DEMON - no transport available.
