The start of this Race was delayed due to SCOTCH MAGIC proving difficult and stubborn to load. SCOTCH MAGIC proved stubborn to load. Trainer Miller was advised to re-school this gelding prior to its next engagement. DIESEL ENGINE was slow into stride. Shortly after the start, DIESEL ENGINE was awkwardly placed between TEAGAN'S BOY and SCOTCH MAGIC which jumped out. TEAGAN'S BOY was carried in approaching the 100m by WINNING EDGE, which shifted in marginally. Thereafter WINNING EDGE was awkwardly placed between TZITZIKAMA FIRE and SHADES OF SILENCE in the concluding stages. FORD COUNTRY was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. KALIDAR raced equipped with alumites. GROOVY NEWS raced with Club colours. Vet: GROOVY NEWS - coughing. SOLID AS A ROCK - fatigue. 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.
