ALL NIGHT LONE threw its head up as the start was effected losing four lengths, thereafter took an awkward stride and was slow into stride. In view of the report from the Starter regarding ALL NIGHT LONG, Trainer Steyn will be advised to have this gelding re-schooled before its next engagement. In view of the performance from FLYING GITANO, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine the gelding on its return to the unsaddling enclosure and submit a report. LIQUID DYNAMITE pulled hard in the early stages and compounded in the straight. BLIND SPOT was carried out by STRIKEITLIKEAMATCH, which was hanging out between the 300m and 200m. Jockey Behr appeared before the Board and was advised that he will be expected to make more effort to keep his mount on a straight course in future. BLIND SPOT was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. The Ownership of STRIKEITLIKEAMATCH to read: Messrs S W F Barnard, F M Carruthers, E Hector, W H Jacobs, G R Puller and Ian Robinson; and the Colours remain unchanged. Vet: LIQUID DYNAMITE and FLYING GITANO - inspected post race and no obvious abnormalities were detected. Scratched: DRIVE ME CRAZY - coughing.
