Light rain fell prior to and during the running of Race 8. The start of this Race was delayed to allow for the machinery to harrow the track. EIGHT STORIES (AUS) and BERMUDA were slow into stride. DELIRIOUS NOMAD was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Jockey Lerena, the rider of ROY ROYALE (AUS), accidentally dropped his crop at approximately the 300 metre mark. KILLARNEY HOUSE, who was racing on the inside of DELIRIOUS NOMAD, was forced to check off the heels of PIROGUE at approximately the 300 metre mark. This incident is to be reviewed by the Stipendiary Board. Apprentice Murray reported that BIG BIRD took no interest in running. In view of the performance of EIGHT STORIES (AUS), the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. Vet: BIG BIRD - not striding out left fore. EIGHT STORIES (AUS) - nothing obvious detected. DELIRIOUS NOMAD - coughing. Scratched: NOTTINGHAM FOREST - injured in transit. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at tonight's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at tonight's race meeting were checked, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed.
