The start of this Race was delayed due to O'BRIEN THE LION having to be led to the start. O'BRIEN THE LION was restless in the pens. Trainer Zaki was advised to re-school this colt prior to its next engagement. DANCE KID, SUPER MARIUS and SUZIE'S ARROW were stubborn loading. MAC FORD flyjumped leaving the stalls, losing 2 lengths. GANICUS raced equipped with alumite bar shoes in front, alumites behind. GREY ALAMI and MAC FORD were pulling hard early. PAY AS YOU GO, hanging in, shifted in slightly, resulting in SUZIE'S ARROW clipping the heels of PAY AS YOU GO and stumbling at approximately the 300 metre mark. Jockey van der Merwe, the rider of PAY AS YOU GO, appeared before the Board, was shown the patrol film of the race and advised to make more effort to keep his mounts on a straight course in future. TRIP TO RIO was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. DANISH DANCE is a gelding. Vet: HONG KONG TIGER - abnormal respiratory noise. Scratched: RED HAZE - bolted.
