Jockey Jacobson reported MATHEMATICIAN was changing legs and he felt something amiss and therefore he did not persevere with his mount in the final 200 metres of this race. Jockey Chambers reported FLAX was changing legs throughout. ROAD TO DUBAI and NEWTON POWER were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. FLAX raced in steels. Vet: FLAX and SHEIK'S BRASHEE - distressed post race and hosed down and cooled satisfactorily. MATHEMATICIAN - examined post race and nothing untoward was found.
