The start of this race was delayed when MR TATLER reared in the pens and had to be taken out, inspected by the Veterinary Surgeon, declared fit to race and reloaded. Thereafter the saddle on HARD BALL (AUS) had to be refitted. MR TATLER was restless and reared in the pens. The starting stalls certificate for this colt has been withdrawn and it was suspended for a period of 7 days and until recertified tractable. DEVIOUS XANDRE and HARD BALL (AUS) were restless in the pens. Trainer Maroun and Trainer Janse van Vuuren were advised to re-school their horses prior to its next engagement. SILVA TOUCH reared in the pens and was slow, losing 2 lengths. REVENTADOR and TROTSKA were slow into stride. Jockey Maujean reported that REVENTADOR did not stride out freely in running. Jockey Zechner reported that JET SAILOR changed stride continually in running. TROTSKA was hanging out from the 300m. TIMEOFTHEVIKINGS was hanging out from the 200m. REFUGE shifted out away from the crop from the 200m. REFUGE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. SILVA TOUCH raced equipped with alumite shoes in front, unshod behind. Vet: REVENTADOR - examined post race, no significant findings. SILVA TOUCH - blowing heavily post race. JET SAILOR - not striding out right front.
