EIGHT CITIES jumped awkwardly leaving the stalls losing one length. EIGHT CITIES was difficult to settle in the early and middle stages. At approximately the 1000m, AMERICAN INDIAN became awkwardly placed on the heels of ALSSAKHRA, which was over-racing in the early and middle stages. In the concluding stages, LOYAL LIEUTENANT had to shift out to avoid the heels of WONDEROUS CLIMBER, which was carried out marginally by ALSSAKHRA, which shifted out away from the crop. AMERICAN INDIAN shifted out away from the crop in the concluding stages. WONDEROUS CLIMBER was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. EIGHT CITIES raced equipped with alumites in front and unshod behind. Vet: LOYAL LIEUTENANT - examined post race, no significant findings. Scratched: GYPSY'S ANSWER - insufficient recovery time.
