BEZA was slow into stride. An inquiry will be held into the riding of CASCIANO by Jockey David in the concluding stages. At the 400m LAST BATTLE was badly unbalanced when it was switched out slightly to continue its run off the heels of ORIVIETO and was bumped heavily by BOTANIST, which itself had shown a tendency to hang inwards and was carried inwards by CASCIANO, which shifted in when insufficiently clear. WINTER MISCHIEF, which was following, had to switch out to continue its run. Jockey David signed an Admission of Guilt for a contravention in that he, as the rider of CASCIANO, failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to BOTANIST and LAST BATTLE when he shifted inwards at the 400m. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of 7 days. LAST BATTLE was tightened for galloping room at the 200m when he attempted to improve between AMBER SAIL and CASCIANO. MASTER ARCHER had to steady at the 200m to avoid the heels of CIAO-CIAO, which rolled outwards and was immediately straightened. AL FIRENZE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer Vos will be requested to report back on the condition of TIGER STORM on return to the stables. AL FIRENZE raced equipped with a tongue tie. AMBER SAIL raced in the Colours of Mrs L D Delaney: White, Green Band of Diamonds, Orange Sleeves and Cap. Vet: CHEDWIN PARK - abnormal respiratory noise.
