TELEKINESIS jumped awkwardly losing one length and thereafter was slow into stride. GRACCHUS was restless in the stalls. Trainer Sheehan will be advised to have this colt re-schooled before its next engagement. CUDUIARI was reluctant to load. Trainer Nel will be advised to have this colt re-schooled before its next engagement. CUDUIARI raced green. When questioned regarding the improved performance from MOLLY'S CHAMBERS today compared to her previous run on 15 December 2015 at Kenilworth over 1000m when the filly finished 11.80 behind the winner, which had won by 5.25 lengths, Trainer Steyn told the Stewards that after she had run a disappointing race in her last run he had given her two months rest, which in his opinion had accounted for her improvement shown today. The Board reviewed the filly's previous run and was satisfied that she was ridden and raced on merit. Trainer Steyn was advised that the future performances of the filly will be monitored. MOLLY'S CHAMBERS and SECRET NAME were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Scratched: HUGO MONTENEGRO - lame on the right fore knee. STATE BALLET - cut into on the left hind, under medication. RAVISHING BOY - shin sore.
