BELINSKY was slow into stride. LIZZIE'S LEGS raced equipped with alumites in front and steel behind. NKOMO was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer Maroun was questioned regarding the improved performance of NKOMO. He explained to the Board that in this filly's previous run she had over-raced from a wide draw and had subsequently compounded in the straight. He further stated that in his opinion the shorter distance of today's race and the good draw had accounted for the improvement. The Board has adjourned to view NKOMO's previous run on the 4th of September 2014. Vet: SHAMAL - coughing. Scratched: EMPIRE OF THE MOON - insufficient recovery time.
