RIGHTFUL KING and CHILI CON CARNE were slow into stride. SHARP SEATTLE over-raced in the early stages. When questioned regarding his ride on CHILI CON CARNE, Jockey Zackey explained to the board that this gelding had dropped the bit early, shown no interest in running and he had to chase this gelding to try and keep him in touch with the field. However, he continued to drop back until picking up the bit at the 600m and running on strongly. JUST A JAG was hanging in from the 300m. RIGHTFUL KING was hanging in from the 200m. Approaching the 150m SHIVERING SEA made contact with the inside running rail. BRITISH ROYALE and DANZA were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. RIGHTFUL KING raced with a tongue tie on. Vet: RIGHTFUL KING - abnormal respiratory noise.
