MORE THAN GRAND (AUS) was slow losing two lengths and thereafter was slow into stride. In view of the performance from MORE THAN GRAND (AUS), which took no interest throughout, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine the colt and submit a report. VALERO pulled hard in the early stages. BELCOURT CASTLE was hanging out late. HARD DAY'S NIGHT, which was hanging out, shifted out from the 300m and was difficult to assist. HARD DAY'S NIGHT was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: MORE THAN GRAND (AUS) - inspected post race and no obvious abnormalities were detected.
