GOLD STATUS proved stubborn to load, which caused a delay to the start of this Race. GOLD STATUS was stubborn loading. Trainer Binda was advised to re-school this gelding prior to his next engagement. EL BOMBERO jumped awkwardly leaving the stalls and lost one length. Jockey de Melo reported that he felt something amiss with FINLAY in running and he did not persevere with his riding from the 300m. Jockey Zackey appeared before the Board and was questioned regarding his ride of CASCIANO. He explained to the Board that this was a flat run from CASCIANO and he normally accelerates when asked for an effort. He further explained to the Board that the horse felt sound and there was no concern regarding his wellbeing. Jockey Zackey's explanation was noted, however, he was advised to ride his mounts out with sufficient vigour and determination as to leave no room for query from the Stewards. CAPTAIN CHIPS was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: FINLAY - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at today's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at today's race meeting were checked and their identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed.
