DESTINYS GAME and WORDYNESS were slow, losing 1 length. PRETTY BALLERINA stood, losing 5 lengths. The starting stalls certificate for this mare has been withdrawn. In view of the Starter's report with regard to PRETTY BALLERINA, this mare was suspended for a period of 7 days and until such time as it proves tractable with a companion on a race day. PRETTY BALLERINA may not be presented for repassing during this period. Jockeys Kennedy, the rider of DESTINYS GAME, and Jockey Habib, the rider of PRETTY BALLERINA, reported that their respective mounts did not stride out freely in running. Jockey Lerena reported that he felt something amiss with MOROCCAN FLAME in running. Apprentice Ferraris signed an Admission of Guilt and was fined for contravention, read with Guideline M on the use of the crop, in that he hit the horse JAMRA more than 12 times in the entire race. When assessing the penalty, the Board took into consideration that this was Apprentice Ferraris' second offence of a contravention, read with Guideline M on the use of the crop, in the last 30 days. Approaching the 400M JIVE EXPRESS shifted in to obtain a clear run. JIVE EXPRESS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: DESTINYS GAME - not striding out both front. MOROCCAN FLAME - blowing. PRETTY BALLERINA - not striding out right front. Scratched: MACHALI - Stewards' permission; accepted to run in a feature race on 7 March 2020. ELUSIVE BUTTERFLY - off feed.
