POPPY GREY jumped outwards. BANDANNA and TRUMPETS CALLING were slow into stride. FLYING VISIT was slow, losing 1 length. In view of the performance from BANDANNA, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this filly. Trainer Tarry was requested to report back on the condition of BANDANNA on return to the stables. Jockey Lerena reported that FLIPFLASH changed strides continually in running. Shortly after the start BANDANNA and TRUMPETS CALLING were bumped by POPPY GREY, which jumped outwards. TRUMPETS CALLING was hanging in from the 200m. KANTARA QUEEN shifted both ways away from the crop in the concluding stages. FASHION BLAST and MADAM SECRETARY were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: BANDANNA - examined post race, no significant findings. FLIPFLASH - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. KANTARA QUEEN - blowing heavily post race.
