OVIDIO (AUS) jumped awkwardly and thereafter was slow into stride. Jockey van der Hoven was charged with a contravention in that he failed to weigh out at the correct carded weight on the horse ROMAN DISCENT, which resulted in a change of rider. Jockey van der Hoven signed an Admission of Guilt and was fined. Jockey Simons, the rider of SMART MART, reported that the bit had pulled through this gelding's mouth in running. Shortly after the start GOTHIC became awkwardly placed between COLTRANE (ARG) and AREZZO. AREZZO became cramped for galloping room at about the 200m when attempting a narrow run and switched in to continue its run. BANNER HILL and OVIDIO (AUS) were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis.
