The start of this Race was delayed due to VIKING RED having a shoe attended to in the saddling enclosure. NIGHT CIRCUS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. TANJIRO was pulling hard in the early stages, difficult to restrain. Near the 1300 metre mark BREAKFAST CLUB shifted in, in front of TANJIRO, who was pulling hard in the early stages. Thereafter TANJIRO ran into and made contact with the hindquarters of BREAKFAST CLUB, resulting in FRIEND REQUEST clipping the heels of TANJIRO, stumbling and shifting outwards. Thereafter Jockey de Melo, the rider of BREAKFAST CLUB, under the impression that there was something amiss with this gelding, eased him out of the Race, resulting in FRIEND REQUEST racing on the outside of BREAKFAST CLUB, shifting outwards and only re-joining the field near the 1000 metre mark. This incident is to be reviewed by the Board. VIKING RED raced wide into the straight. TROPICAL'S SON was hanging out throughout. LONELY ARETHEBRAVE was accidentally struck on the head by Apprentice Ngwane, the rider of TANJIRO, near the 50-metre mark. Vet: BREAKFAST CLUB - cut into right hind.
