During the loading process, the front gates of the starting stalls opened for no apparent reason resulting in VULCAN bolting the course and subsequently being withdrawn by the Veterinary Surgeon. TANDAVA (ZIM), ANGELIC APPEAL and RAIN SHADOW were restrained by their riders, examined by the Veterinary Surgeon, passed fit to race and reloaded. This caused a delay to the start of this Race. At approximately the 200m TANDAVA took an awkward stride. TRADING PROFIT was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Following the starting stalls opening prematurely for the second time, the Stipendiary Board investigated this matter and it was established that this was a different bank of stalls to the ones which were used in Race 4 where the gates also opened prematurely. Therefore it was deduced that the problem was with the cabling and/or the release trigger and not the starting stalls themselves. It was decided that the remaining races would be started by means of a manual start. The Operator has undertaken to make the necessary corrective measures to the starting stall equipment before the next Vaal racemeeting. Scratched: VULCAN - bolted the course.
