In view of the performance from QUARLLO, which over-raced in the early stages, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine the gelding on its return to the unsaddling enclosure and submit a report. CROMPTON COURT raced green. DEBT SETTLED, which raced green, and QUARLLO brushed at the 250m. STRATHDON was squeezed out shortly after the start. ELUSIVE PATH was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: QUARLLO - returned not striding out behind. Scratched: CHOSEN PATH - insufficient recovery time. 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, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed, as per normal procedure. Several Jockeys were selected for the taking of breathalyser tests and urine samples for analysis.
