BOLD REIGN, FESTIVAL STAR, QUEEN'S BRIDGE, SALSA QUEEN and WINTER WOLF were slow into stride. SALSA QUEEN was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. INTERFEROMETER over-raced in the early and middle stages and was hanging out on the bend. REPRIEVE became cramped near the 400m mark. In view of the performances of INTERFEROMETER and WARRIOR POET, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these horses. SALSA QUEEN was switched in to obtain a clear run approaching the 300 metre mark. HIGH FIVE returned post race having spread the right hind shoe. Vet: INTERFEROMETER - not striding out right fore. WARRIOR POET - nothing obvious detected. Scratched: ORO NEGRO - lame left fore joint. LUCKDRAGON - overreach right fore. WARFARER - coughing.
