THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATRONAGE MAIDEN PLATE

MEGA SECRET became fractious and dislodged the rider and was taken out the stalls. Trainer Kruyer will be advised to have this gelding re-schooled before its next engagement. MR PISCATO broke through the front gate, dislodged the rider and bolted back to the parade ring, was withdrawn by the Veterinary Surgeon causing a delay. Trainer Bass will be advised that this gelding's starting stall certificate has been withdrawn. MINI LOUSHE reared in the stalls, dislodged the rider, broke through the front gate and was immediately restrained. MINI LOUSHE was reloaded and reared in the stalls, was taken out and withdrawn by the Veterinary Surgeon. Trainer Nel will be advised that this gelding's starting stall certificate has been withdrawn. ANGKOR WAT reared in the stalls, was taken out and examined by the Veterinary Surgeon, declared fit to race and was reloaded. Trainer Ramsden will be advised that this gelding's starting stall certificate has been withdrawn. BLACK RAKE was reluctant to load. Trainer Crawford will be advised to have this gelding re-schooled before its next engagement. TROPICAL HEAT, ANGKOR WAT and IMPERIAL DANCER were slow losing one length. IMPERIAL DANCER trailed the field and Jockey Orffer did not persevere with his riding in the straight as he felt something amiss with the gelding. The Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine the gelding on its return to the unsaddling enclosure and submit a report. Trainer Crawford was requested to report back to the Stipendiary Board on the gelding's condition on its return to the stables. BLACK RAKE raced green and shifted both ways away from the crop in the straight. CAPTAIN SPLENDID was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: IMPERIAL DANCER - inspected post race and no obvious abnormalities were detected. BRAAISTIN - returned with a graze on the right hip. ANGKOR WAT - examined at the start and declared fit to race. Scratched: MR PISCATO - broke through the front gate, bolted the course, and was withdrawn. MINI LOUISHE - broke through the front gate, knocked its head in the stalls and was withdrawn. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at today's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at today's race meeting were checked, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed, as per normal procedure. Several Jockeys and Apprentices were selected for the taking of breathalyser tests and urine samples for analysis.
