CALABASH lost 2 lengths. MAIN SUBMISSION lost 1 length. BROOKLYN BRAWLER and CELTIC CAPTAIN were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. BROOKLYN BRAWLER was hanging out badly over the final 300 metres and shifted outwards despite Jockey Delpech's attempt to maintain a straight course. Trainer Snaith appeared before the Board with regard to BROOKLYN BRAWLER and advised the Board that this was the first time his runner had shifted ground in this manner in races. He advised the Board that in consultation with Jockey Delpech the bit used on this gelding would be changed to offer more assistance to the rider. This was noted by the Stipendiary Board. In view of the performance of MAIN SUBMISSION, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this colt. Vet: MAIN SUBMISSION - nothing obvious detected. Trainer Laird advised to report back to the Stipendiary Board should he find anything amiss with this colt on return to stables. WHAT A SCORCHER - speedy cut left fore.
