RELAMPAGO stumbled shortly after the start. TRIPADVISOR was hanging in from the 400m. Jockey Strydom reported that he felt something amiss with this filly in running. Jockey Danielson reported that he felt something amiss with RELAMPAGO in running and did not persevere with his ride from the 100m. An inquiry will be opened into Trainer Tolmay's conduct in the parade ring prior to the running of Race 3. LAST GIRL STANDING and MUSICAL ROMANCE were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer Gray was questioned regarding the improved performance of LAST GIRL STANDING. He explained to the Board that the change of surface, the experience gained in this filly's first run on 19 July 2015 and the addition of blinkers had accounted for the improvement. He has undertaken to race LAST GIRL STANDING similarly equipped in future. Trainer Gray's explanation was noted. Vet: TRIPADVISOR - uncomfortable behind. JUNIPER - abnormal respiratory noise. MUSICAL ROMANCE - Epistaxis, and was suspended for a period of 90 days. RELAMPAGO - examined post race, no significant findings.
