LITTLE MISS JET, LOVE LYRIC, PELAYA and UPRISE were slow into stride. IDEAL DUEL and MERCURY ANGEL lost one length. DIAMANTE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. BRITAIN'S BEST was hanging in, over the final 400 metres. LOVE LYRIC and UPRISE raced green. LA SUERTE DE MATAR and DIAMANTE shifted towards each other and brushed near the 200-metre mark. Near the 50 metre mark DIAMANTE shifted in making contact with and unbalancing LA SUERTE DE MATAR. A race review was called by a Stipendiary Steward into the above incident, which was followed by an Objection lodged by Trainer Howells on behalf of the second placed horse, LA SUERTE DE MATAR, against the winner, DIAMANTE, on the grounds of interference in the latter stages. After viewing the patrol video and considering the distance of an increasing neck at the finish, the Board over-ruled the Objection and allowed the Judge's result to stand. Mr Howells's deposit was refunded. In view of the performances of BRITAIN'S BEST and MERCURY ANGEL, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these fillies. Vet: BRITAIN'S BEST and MERCURY ANGEL - nothing obvious detected.
