THE STONE THROWER jumped awkwardly, losing two lengths and thereafter was slow into stride. Jockey Fayd'Herbe reported that MACDUFF (AUS) made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. Jockey Fortune reported that PROFESSOR BRIAN (AUS) made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. Approaching the 700m SEVEN WOOD, which showed a tendency to hang in, became awkwardly placed on the heels of ERNIE (G van Niekerk), which shifted out slightly. MATHEMATICIAN had to ease at the 200m off the heels of POLITICAL POWER, which had shifted in away from the crop. RUSSIAN SPEED raced green and was hanging out from the 300m. Jockey Fortune, the rider of PROFESSOR BRIAN (AUS), was charged with a contravention, in that he weighed in at 59,7kg, which was 1,2kg in excess of the weight at which he was declared out (58,5kg). Jockey Fortune signed an admission of guilt and was fined. TAR HEEL and WESTERN STORM were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: MACDUFF (AUS) - returned making an abnormal respiratory noise. PROFESSOR BRIAN (AUS) - was inspected post race and no obvious abnormalities were detected.
