TIGER'S TOUCH (AUS) was slow, losing 3 lengths and thereafter was slow into stride. Trainer Tarry was advised to re-school this mare prior to its next engagement. TIMEOFTHEVIKINGS was slow into stride. Jockey van der Merwe reported that he felt something amiss with DON CHRISTO in running. Approaching the 300m, CROWN OF ROSES had to steady momentarily when awkwardly placed between DONNY G, which rolled out, and GOLDEN MAN, which was hanging in. Thereafter DONNY G and GOLDEN MAN, when racing in close proximity, came together and brushed on two occasions. RIVARINE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: GOLDEN MAN - abnormal respiratory noise; scalped left hind. DON CHRISTO - not striding out both front.
