Jockey Maujean and Jockey Wrogemann did not ride at today's race meeting (medically indisposed). They were replaced on their mounts. NORDIC STORM and STEPHEN were slow into stride. JET SAILOR was difficult to settle in the early and middle stages. NORDIC STORM became unbalanced shortly after the start when clipping the heels of QUERARI VIKING, which jumped in. Leaving the 300m NORDIC STORM had to steady off the heels of QUERARI VIKING, which shifted in away from the crop resulting in NORDIC STORM losing momentum and having to switch out to continue its run. A race review was called by Trainer Azzie on behalf of the 2nd placed horse, NORDIC STORM, with the presence of Jockey Zechner, which was followed by an objection being lodged by Jockey Zechner, the rider of the 2nd placed horse, NORDIC STORM, against the winner, QUERARI VIKING, on the grounds of taking up his running shortly after the start and interference suffered by NORDIC STORM leaving the 300m. The Objection Board, after hearing all the evidence and viewing the patrol films of the race, were of the opinion that had NORDIC STORM not suffered the interference caused by QUERARI VIKING, NORDIC STORM would have finished in front of QUERARI VIKING and therefore upheld the Objection. The result was amended accordingly. STEPHEN failed to negotiate the bend and thereafter gave ground to the field in the straight. BUBBLY REPLY was hanging in from the 400m. MR TINSEL and BONO were baulked for a clear run between the 400m and the 300m. QUERARI VIKING was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: FORT INFINITY - cut into right hind. BONO - cut into right hind.
