WADI RAMM and PLUMTREE were stubborn loading. GRAND PLUME was stubborn loading, slow away and lost 1 length. COOL PANTHER was nervous in the stall. SATCHMO was slow into stride. BOLD EPIC was slow away, lost 1 length. Permission was granted for AGE OF AQUARIUS to be led to the start with a lead horse. AGE OF AQUARIUS shifted inwards entering the 1st turn, carried TANGO CHARLIE inwards slightly, which resulted in SUN FLASH and SPECTACULAR JET becoming cramped for galloping room. Jockey Lerena appeared before the Board was shown the patrol film of this incident and advised to take more care when shifting ground in future. SATCHMO and COOL PANTHER were hanging in over the final 400 metres. SIMMERING was hanging in, in the closing stages. GRAND PLUME and VALMODE raced green. Jockey Danielson, rider of BOLD EPIC, and Apprentice Mxothwa, rider of TANGO CHARLIE, reported that their mounts were not striding out freely in the running. PLUMTREE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. COOL PANTHER raced in Club Colours. Vet: SPECTACULAR JET - speedy cut left hind cranial fetlock. BOLD EPIC not striding out. TANGO CHARLIE checked post race, nothing obvious detected. GRAND PLUME - speedy cut left hind coronate.
