LA GIRONA and SHOW ME THE LIGHT were both slow into stride. EDITH'S ROSE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. LA GIRONA and SHOW ME THE LIGHT made contact on a number of occasions shortly after the start and were both squeezed out. ROY'S MARLIN was hanging out throughout. FLAMBOYANT was hanging out over the final 300 metres. Jockey Marcus reported FLAMBOYANT took no interest when encouraged in the straight. Apprentice de Gouveia reported SHOW ME THE LIGHT not striding out freely in running. In view of the performance of CATS BALOO, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this filly. Jockey Marcus signed an Admission of Guilt and was fined for a contravention in that he failed to ride FLAMBOYANT out to the end of the race thereby losing 5th place. VAR AGTIG raced with her tongue tied down. I'M A VAR raced fitted with alumite bar shoes both fore and alumites behind. ROY'S MOJARRA raced with her tongue tied down. Vet: FLAMBOYANT - not striding out right fore. CATS and SHOW ME THE LIGHT - nothing obvious detected. ROY'S MARLIN - coughing post race. Scratched: DIAMONDS FOREVER - not eating up. PAMUNKEY - coughing. ROY'S HERRING - elevated temperature.
