In the concluding stages SAMURAI BLADE (AUS) had to steady off the heels of SPORTING MONARCH, which was carried in marginally by SHIVERING SEA, which was hanging in from the 150m. As a consequence of this Jockey Strydom was unable to ride SAMURAI BLADE out to the end of the race. Thereafter Jockey Strydom reported that this gelding made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. Apprentice Thackeray reported that JUST AS I SAID made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. Jockey Khumalo reported that RIGHTFUL KING made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. When questioned regarding his ride on RIGHTFUL KING, Jockey Khumalo explained to the Board that this colt had made a severe breathing noise throughout the running of the race, had never travelled well and was always under pressure to maintain his position. Trainer Tarry was requested to report back on the condition of RIGHTFUL KING on return to the stables. THE STONE THROWER and SHIVERING SEA were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. THE STONE THROWER raced equipped with a tongue tie. Vet: SAMURAI BLADE (AUS) - abnormal respiratory noise. AUSSIE AUSTIN (AUS) - speedy cut left hind. JUST AS I SAID and RIGHTFUL KING - no respiratory noise detected post race.
