ROY'S STORMER lost one length. THE POET was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. KEEP ON CHOOGLIN was steadied off the heels of ROY'S TAXI at approximately the 350-metre mark. THE KING OF RANDOM was hanging out and shifted out, despite Jockey Winnaar's attempts to maintain a straight course, which resulted in ROY'S TAXI being carried outwards and THE POET becoming cramped on the outside running rail for a number of strides at approximately the 400 metre mark and thereafter having to switch inwards to obtain a clear run. In view of the performances of ROY'S STORMER and BUSTER BROWN, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these horses. THE KING OF RANDOM was pulling hard in the early stages. THE POET is a gelding and not a colt as carded. The Medical Officer reported that Jockey Sturgeon stood down after the running of this Race with a pain in the right shoulder. Vet: ROY'S STORMER - nothing obvious detected. BUSTER BROWN - speedy cut right fore and coughing. MILLRACE - lame left fore. Scratched: HIGHLAND FLING - insufficient recovery time.
