MYSTIC REALM and BATTLE OF ARCOLE failed to muster speed in the early stages. Jockey Danielson, the rider of WALKABOUT, had his crop accidentally struck from his hand at the 150m. POST GRAD shifted away from the crop at the 400m. BATTLE OF ARCOLE was hanging in from the 400m. Apprentice Thackeray reported that FLURRY took no interest in running. Jockey Naude reported that MASTER DUKE made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. DIESEL POWER and MARSDEN were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. SAMIDEE raced in the Colours of Mr G M Alexander: Black and Old Gold Stripes, Black Cap. Vet: MARSDEN - coughing. FLURRY - mild post race distress. MASTER DUKE - no respiratory noise detected post race. Scratched: BORDER PATROL - insufficient recovery time. TRAVELLING MULLINS - under 12 days' suspension.
