CHOCOLATE ECLAIR was stubborn loading. Trainer Moffatt was advised to re-school this filly prior to her next engagement. IMPERIAL EMPRESS lost one length. SEATTLE FAIRY was stubborn loading. Jockey Fortune, the rider of JUMPSTART, and Apprentice Thackeray, the rider of CHOCOLATE ??CLAIR, reported that they felt something amiss with their mounts in running. BEAUTIFUL DAWN was difficult to settle in the early stages and thereafter compounded in the straight. IMPERIAL EMPRESS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: JUMPSTART - not striding out right front. CHOCOLATE ECLAIR - examined post race, no significant findings. RUBY RUBY - not striding out left front and fatigue. FRENCH APPROVAL - not striding out right front and coughing. Scratched: SOUKOUS - cast in box. 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.
