The start of this race was delayed due to DANILO GALLINARI casting his left fore shoe en route to the start and the Farrier having to replace it and further the withdrawal of ASGARD. GYPSY LANE was stubborn loading. SUIT OF LIGHTS was stubborn loading, slow away and lost 1 length. MING WARRIOR, DANCINGINTHEDESERT and FISCARDO were slow away, lost 1 length. MING WARRIOR was unruly on parade, Jockey Andrews was granted permission to hack his mount to the start. COUNTERBLAST was pulling hard in the early stages. PIANO FOREST was hanging in from the 400 metre mark. SAXONY was hanging in over the final 200 metres. MO' PEPPER was hanging in over the final 200 metres. Jockey Latham, the rider of BASHIR, Jockey Minnie, the rider of DANCINGINTHEDESERT, and Apprentice Mxothwa, the rider of BERRYMILLER, reported that their mounts were not striding out freely in the running. BISHOP'S CHOICE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer Strydom was questioned regarding the improved performance of this gelding compared to his previous start on 21 March 2014. He explained that this gelding's previous start was a poor run due to having missed the break from a bad draw and never ran on. He further stated that he rested this gelding and today BISHOP'S CHOICE returned to form. The Board noted this explanation. Vet: BASHIR and BERRYMILLER - short in front. DANCINGINTHEDESERT - short right fore. COUNTERBLAST - abnormal respiratory noise. MING WARRIOR - coughing post race. Scratched: ASGARD - short left fore, withdrawn at the start by the Course Veterinary Surgeon.
