The start of this Race was delayed due to GIANT STEP proving stubborn to load. GIANT STEP reared in the pens. The starting stalls certificate for this gelding has been withdrawn until recertified tractable with a companion. MANZAI was stubborn loading. LIKE A BOSS (AUS) jumped outwards leaving the stalls. WINDY EXPRESS lost 1 to 2 lengths. ISOSHA raced green. Jockey Aucharuz reported that DELICIOUS DAMOWIN (AUS) made a respiratory noise. MANZAI baulked for a clear run between the 400 metre mark and the 200 metre mark. PYRAMUS, hanging in, shifted in, resulting in HEREFORD BOY having to ease off the heels of PYRAMUS at approximately the 200 metre mark. DIESEL JET was hanging out from the 400 metre mark. GIANT STEP was hanging in, in the latter stages. WINDY EXPRESS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: DELICIOUS DAMOWIN (AUS) - no respiratory noise detected post race. LIKE A BOSS (AUS) - nasal discharge.
