KALIDAR, SAN VICENZO and SILKEN SEA were slow into stride. KALIDAR over-raced in the early stages. STEADY AS A ROCK was hanging out in the straight. In view of the performance of STEADY AS A ROCK, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. Trainer Lensley was requested to report back to the Board on the condition of this gelding on return to stables. Jockey Wrogemann reported that he felt something amiss with KINGSLEY in running. ASTRO BOY was hanging in in the straight. NIEBELUNG was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: SAN VICENZO - abnormal respiratory noise. STEADY AS A ROCK - examined post race, no significant findings. KINGSLEY - not striding out left front. Scratched: TIGER WOULD - no transport available. The start of Race 9 was delayed due to the close proximity of a severe electrical thunderstorm. After a delay there was no improvement in the weather and that the lightning detector was showing unfavourable readings, it was decided in consultation with the Racing Operator, to abandon Race 9. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at today's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at today's race meeting were checked, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed, as per normal procedure.
