The start of this Race was delayed due to TROPHY WIFE and ROYAL BADGE proving difficult to load. TROPHY WIFE was difficult to load and was slow losing three lengths. ROYAL BADGE was difficult to load. ELUSIVE SILVA and CROWD PLEASER were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. ELUSIVE SILVA was hanging in badly over the final 350 metres and shifted in, carrying BLACK ARTHUR inwards between the 300 and 200 metre marks. Jockey Fourie, the rider of ELUSIVE SILVA, appeared before the Board and was advised to take stronger measures to keep his mounts on a straight course in future. In view of the performance of MASTER SWITCH, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. In view of the Starter's report concerning TROPHY WIFE, this mare's starting stall certificate is withdrawn until recertified tractable with a companion. Vet: MASTER SWITCH - nothing obvious detected. TROPHY WIFE - in season.
