Jockey Delpech was kicked in the parade ring prior to the running of race 4 and after being examined by the paramedics was declared fit to ride in this race. However, Jockey Delpech was given a Voltaren injection after the race and was advised by the course Medical Officer to recuperate for a short period of time. As a result Jockey Delpech was replaced in Race 5, but was given permission to fulfil his remaining engagements. TOUCH THE SKY was slow into stride. SANTA CAROLINA was slow, losing 1 length. CASHA was slow, losing 2 lengths. VINO VERITAS was switched in to continue its run approaching the 350m. Thereafter, between the 250m and the 200m, VINO VERITAS was carried out by SANTA CAROLINA, which shifted out away from the crop and when Jockey van Niekerk, the rider of SANTA CAROLINA, changed his crop to his left hand side, he accidentally struck VINO VERITAS on the head. Jockey van Niekerk signed an Admission of Guilt for a contravention in that he, as the rider of SANTA CAROLINA, failed to ensure that he did not cause interference to VINO VERITAS when he shifted out between the 250m and the 200m. He was suspended from riding in races for a period of 7 days. BILATERAL was hanging in, in the straight. AMBER ORCHID (AUS) cast its left hind shoe in running. AMBER ORCHID (AUS) and FORTITUDE were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: SISTERS OF MERCY - abnormal respiratory noise.
