TT Y

LUCKY LUCIANO was slow into stride. LIVE ON THE MOON and SOUTH PAW lost one length. UNBELIEVABLE CHAD lost two lengths. EMPEROR NIARCHOS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. KENTUCKY GUEST over-raced in the early stages. FOR EVER raced wide on the bend, without cover. UNBELIEVABLE CHAD and A TIME TO KILL were hanging in, in the final straight. In view of the performance of UNBELIEVABLE CHAD, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. Jockey Randolph reported that he felt something amiss with MR O'NEILL. Jockey Forbes reported that SOUTH PAW was fatigued post race. Vet: UNBELIEVABLE CHAD and MR O'NEILL - nothing obvious detected. SOUTH PAW - coughing. PEACE AGAIN - abnormal respiratory noise.
