ZERMATT lost 1 length. Jockey Danielson reported that VICTORY SILKS changed stride continually in running. Jockey Herholdt signed an Admission of Guilt for a contravention in that he rode the horse SUMMER CONNECTION in an unprofessional manner by dropping his crop approaching the 200m. A Warning was imposed. SUMMER CONNECTION had to steady at the 650m to avoid the heels of VICTORY SILKS, which rolled out slightly. A Stipendiary Steward considered if he should have called a race review, but after reviewing the patrol film was satisfied that SUMMER CONNECTION had in fact headed VICTORY SILKS at the 250m and decided to take no further action. CEDAR WOOD and GIVE ME A REASON were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. BOLD BADGER raced equipped with a tongue tie. Jockey Herholdt and Jockey Khumalo signed an Admission of Guilt and were fined for a contravention in that they failed to proceed to the parade ring immediately after being instructed to do so by the Clerk of Scales. Vet: VICTORY SILKS - not striding out right front. ZERMATT - coughing. Scratched: STARLIGHT EXPLORER (AUS) - change of surface COLONEL ROCKJAW - change of surface. MY TREASURE and ROMAN CARNIVAL - shin sore.
