NARMADA jumped awkwardly leaving the stalls. CELINE was slow into stride. FIT TO FLIGHT was awkwardly placed at approximately the 300m on the inside of PENA PALACE, which shifted in, resulting in FIT TO FLIGHT having to ease off the heels of PENA PALACE. An inquiry will be held into this report. Jockey Pretorius reported that he felt something amiss with BUTOOL in running and did not persevere with his ride from the 400m. In view of the performances from CLOUD RUNNER and HEART FLOWER, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these horses. FIT TO FLIGHT was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer Cason was questioned regarding the improved performance of FIT TO FLIGHT. He could offer the Board no suitable explanation. His attention was drawn to the Rules pertaining to In and Out Running. POPULAR BLUES and CELINE raced equipped with alumite shoes in front, unshod behind. Vet: WIMOWEH - coughing. CLOUD RUNNER - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. HEART FLOWER - examined post race, no significant findings. CAPE GREY - abnormal respiratory noise. BUTOOL - not striding out left front. POPULAR BLUES - not striding out both front.
