UNCHAINED MELODY cast its left front shoe in running. In view of the performances of FLAG OF FRANCE and TOUR OF DUTY, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these horses. Apprentice Hewitson reported that UNCHAINED MELODY changed stride continually in running. Shortly before the finish line, ROMAN EVENING was bumped out by MOSHAV, which shifted out away from the crop and was immediately straightened. MANX PARK was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. When questioned regarding this gelding's improved performance, Trainer Binda explained to the Board that this gelding's merit rating had dropped substantially by 17 points and he felt that MANX PARK is better suited to 1000 metres. He further advised the Board that where possible, he would race this gelding over similar distances in future. Mr Binda's explanation was noted. Vet: DEMAGOGUE - not striding out right front and coughing. Indefinite suspension for a full veterinary report and gallop. FLAG OF FRANCE - examined post race, no significant findings. MANX PARK - abnormal respiratory noise and - coughing. TOUR OF DUTY - coughing. Scratched: SOVIET COSMONAUT - lame left front.
