FLAG OF FRANCE pulled its left front shoe en-route to the start which was attended to by the Course Farrier. This caused a delay to the start of this Race. FLIGHT MODE stood losing three lengths. Trainer Goosen was advised to re-school this gelding prior to its next engagement. PIPKIN was slow into stride. After being slow away, FLIGHT MODE failed to muster speed and gave ground to the field. In view of the performance of GRATUITY, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this filly. Trainer Goosen was requested to report back to the Board on the condition of this filly on return to stables. Jockey Murray reported that TIGER'S LEGACY did not stride out freely in running. DRAGOON and PIPKIN were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. FLAG OF FRANCE raced equipped with alumites in front and unshod behind. PIPKIN raced with a tongue tie on Vet: GRATUITY - examined post race, no significant findings. TIGER'S LEGACY - not striding out right front. LE TIGRE - speedy cut left hind.
