The start of the 2nd Race was delayed due to the 30 minute gap between Races 1 & 2. WINTER WOOD, RACE ME HOME and ZAGORA were all slow into stride. TOMBAZANA flyjumped leaving the stalls. GRAND FANTASY was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. TOMBAZANA over-raced, was difficult to restrain and as a result was forced to ease off the heels of CHAPEL QUEEN at approximately the 800 metre mark. CHAPEL QUEEN and RACE ME HOME both raced green. TOMBAZANA shifted out entering the straight carrying ZAGORA and WINTER WOOD outwards. Apprentice Ngwane, the rider of TOMBAZANA, appeared before the Board with regard to this incident and advised to take more care when shifting ground in races in future. RACE ME HOME was eased of the heels of MASKED GIRL shortly before the finish. CHAPEL GREEN raced fitted with steels. Vet: MASKED GIRL - cut into left hind. Scratched: ROYAL QUEST - ineligible, winner 18.8.2015. LE MONDE - elevated temperature.
