TOO PHAT TO FLY was slow, losing 1 length. At approximately the 1400m STORM DESTINY, TOO PHAT TO FLY and ROCKIN RUSSIAN, which were following RUNNING BRAVE, which over-raced and proved difficult to assist, suffered varying degrees of interference. After reviewing this incident from various angles, the Stewards deemed this to be a racing incident and therefore took no further action. At approximately the 1200m, in a race run at a sedate pace, SECRET DREAM had to steady when awkwardly placed between QUERARI FERRARI and VIRGINIA, which rolled in. RUNNING BRAVE was hanging in from the 400m. LADY OF STEEL and VIRGINIA was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: SARAGON - lame left front.
