BLUE DIAMOND ROAD was slow, losing 1 length. BARACAH and SIR CECIL were slow, losing 2 lengths. CAMPS DRIFT was slow into stride. Leaving the 400m NERO was awkwardly placed on the heels of MENDOZA'S MELODY, which rolled out marginally. POST GRAD was awkwardly placed at approximately the 300m between LUCA DELAGO and SCOTLAND, which was hanging in from the 400m. O'BRIEN THE LION was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: LUCA DELAGO - Epistaxis. This horse was suspended for a period of 60 days from racing in any race under the jurisdiction of The National Horseracing Authority. 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 and their identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed.
