EFFORTLESS lost 1 length. At approximately the 700m TURAATHY (AUS) was awkwardly placed and had to switch out off the heels of PLAYING GAMES. SEVENTH PEARL was hanging out on the turn and proved difficult to assist. Leaving the 300m EFFORTLESS had to switch out to continue its run. In the concluding stages PLAYING GAMES was carried out by ELEGANT BEAUTY, which shifted out away from the crop. A member of the Stipendiary Board called a race review into the concluding stages of the race and after reviewing the patrol films, the Board was satisfied that this incident had not affected the result of the race and therefore took no further action. Shortly after the finish line, Jockey Lerena, the rider of PLAYING GAMES, became dislodged, was incapacitated and unable to weigh in. The Board was satisfied that PLAYING GAMES had carried the correct weight. ELEGANT BEAUTY was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. ELEGANT BEAUTY raced equipped with a tongue tie. Vet: PLAYING GAMES - not striding out left front. TURAATHY (AUS) - speedy cut right hind. EMPEROR'S FANTASY - speedy cut left hind.
