NAHOON BEACH jumped awkwardly losing one length. Shortly after the start FLAG OF FRANCE was awkwardly placed between SCAR TISSUE and CRIMSON MAGIC. Leaving the 800m FLAG OF FRANCE was carried in by GAISCE GOLD, which rolled in, as a consequence of this, FLAG OF FRANCE switched out to continue its run. In the concluding stages, HEYWOT was awkwardly placed on the heels of GAISCE GOLD, which resulted in Jockey Maujean not being able to fully ride this gelding out to the end of the race. Jockey Wright, the rider of SLEEPINSEATTLE, accidentally dropped his crop at approximately the 200m. SPRING STEEL was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: DON CHRISTO - mouth injury. Scratched: ASTRO - coughing. SHANNON'S BOY - cast in box and abnormal temperature. 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 and their identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed.
