The start of this Race was delayed as a result of a false start being called as a result of ROCK OF AFRICA rearing as the start was effected. All horses were pulled up after having gone approximately 400 metres, returned to the start and were reloaded. ROCK OF AFRICA reared in the stalls as a result a false start was called. DARK MOON RISING, PHOEBUS, SABER'S BEADS and LONDON KNIGHT were slow into stride. ROCK OF AFRICA was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Apprentice Gates, the rider of MASTER SAM, had a satisfactory qualifying ride. DARK MOON RISING was slow into stride and thereafter was cramped and squeezed out at approximately the 1100 metre mark. ROCK OF AFRICA was hanging in throughout and was hanging in badly in the latter stages. DARK MOON RISING became baulked and cramped at approximately the 350 metre mark and was switched out to obtain a clear run at approximately the 300 metre mark. Jockey Forbes reported that he felt something amiss with PHOEBUS in running. In view of the Starter's report concerning ROCK OF AFRICA, this gelding's starting stall certificate is withdrawn until re-passed tractable with a companion. MASTER SAM raced with steel shoes and not alumites as carded and this gelding raced without a tongue tie. SILVER CENT and DEVON BELLE raced with alumites in front and unshod behind. Vet: PHOEBUS - nothing obvious detected. KEEP YOUR LIGHT ON - post race distress. DEVON BELLE - head injury. Scratched: ROY'S DONKEY (AUS) - swollen right fore fetlock.
