DODGY DUTCHIE jumped awkwardly and thereafter was slow into stride. Jockey Munger reported that he felt something amiss with TRADE EMBLEM in running. SOLID AS A ROCK was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. When question regarding the poor performance of SOLID AS ROCK on 27 February 2017, when finishing 12 lengths behind the winner, Trainer Prinsloo could offer no explanation for this gelding's below par performance. His attention was drawn to the Rules pertaining to In and Out running and advised that the Stewards will monitor SOLID AS A ROCK'S future performances. Vet: ELUSIVE FREEDOM - abnormal respiratory noise. TRADE EMBLEM - coughing; not striding out left front. Scratched: SON OF APPROVAL - not striding out left front. FORT EAGLE - lame right hind.
