The start of this Race was delayed due to the previous Race delays. MOOFEED (AUS) was slow into stride. ASSTAR lost one length. KANGAROO JACK was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. BUCKLAND, hanging out, shifted out near the 350 metre mark, carrying FERRIE outwards, resulting in LONDON CALL, CAPTAIN ALFREDO and RED RAY being carried out. As a result AMAZING STRIKE, racing along the outside running rail, became cramped and had to be eased for a number of strides. Thereafter FERRIE shifted out slightly, carrying LONDON CALL and CAPTAIN ALFREDO outwards. FLY BY NIGHT became cramped for a number of strides approaching the 300 metre mark. In view of the performances of RED RAY and AURUM POT, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these horses. CAPTAIN ALFREDO cast the left hind shoe near the 300 metre mark. MOOFEED (AUS) was momentarily steadied approaching the 50 metre mark and switched in off the heels of FLY BY NIGHT. AMAZING STRIKE raced with a Cornell collar. FLY BY NIGHT raced without a tongue tie. Vet: RED RAY and AURUM POT - nothing obvious detected. Scratched: TRIP TO HEAVEN and OLD EM - insufficient recovery time. VIKING HERO - coughing.
