NEW CIRCLE jumped inwards. DANSILI EXPRESS (AUS) and OLYMPIC GOAL were slow into stride. Apprentice Munger, the rider of DANSILI EXPRESS (AUS) and Jockey Pretorius, the rider of MERCILESS, reported that they felt something amiss with their respective mounts in running and did not persevere with their riding in the straight. Jockey Herholdt reported that he felt something amiss with NEW CIRCLE in running. ALL THE BIDS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. SMANJEMANJE raced without a tongue tie. Vet: NEW CIRCLE, DANSILI EXPRESS (AUS), MERCILESS and ELEGANT BAY - examined post race, no significant findings. TAQDEER (AUS) - mild post race distress. 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 and their identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed. . After the running of Race 1, Jockeys had raised concerns regarding the condition of the track between the 800m and the 600m of the 1000m chute, particularly on the inside running rail. It was then established that there was a leak in the irrigation system, which caused the inside of the track to become waterlogged. As the following five races would be run around the turn and not through this affected area, this would give the Track Manager time to work on the track and attempt to rectify the problem. However, after the running of race 7, a track inspection was carried out by a panel comprising Jockeys, a Trainer, Phumelela Duty Manager, Phumelela Track Manager, Stipendiary Steward and Veterinary Surgeon and it was the unanimous decision that the track was unsafe for racing and Races 8 and 9 were abandoned.
