SAVE THE RHINO lost one length. Jockey Lerena, the rider of DEPUTY JUD, appeared before the Board with regard to his behaviour at the start. He was fined by the Starter which was confirmed by the Stipendiary Board. SUN ON AFRICA commenced to over-race in the middle stages. ERTIJAAL (AUS) had to steady at the 150m when tightened for galloping room between LEGAL EAGLE, which rolled inwards and DEPUTY JUD which shifted out away from the crop. During this incident FRENCH NAVY had to steady momentarily off the heels of LEGAL EAGLE. Jockey Lerena appeared before the Board and was advised to take the necessary measures to keep his mounts on a straight course in future. Jockey Fayd'Herbe, the rider of AMSTERDAM, did not persevere with his riding from the 200m. In view of this gelding's performance, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. LEGAL EAGLE, DEPUTY JUD and FRENCH NAVY were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. The change of Ownership of AMSTERDAM should read: Mr & Mrs F J van Vuuren; and the Colours are: orange, black crossed sashes, orange sleeves and cap (sold with engagements). SUN ON AFRICA carried 58kg with a merit rating of 86, winner 18 April 2015 Turffontein Racecourse. Vet: AMSTERDAM - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. Scratched: COOL CHARDONNAY - lame right hind.
