SUN GIANT (*L J Ferraris) jumped outwards and ROOIPOORT (M Mjoka) jumped inwards leaving the stalls. FIFTH OF JULY (D De Gouveia) and WESTERN DANCE (J Greyling) were slow into stride. An Inquiry will be opened to establish why WESTERN DANCE (J Greyling) and PLUM FIELD (C Maujean) had to ease at approximately the 500m. Leaving the 400m, ANCIENT ROME (W Kennedy) which had come to the end of its run, had to steady when awkwardly placed between CHEVRON (P Strydom) and JAGESA JAGESA (C Murray) which rolled in. At approximately the 350m, IDEAL MAN (*J Gates) was carried in by FIFTH OF JULY (D De Gouveia) which hung in from the 400m. Jockey C Zackey the rider of ROCKY PATH accidentally dropped his crop at the 200m. SUN GIANT (*L J Ferraris), the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Assistant Trainer A Ndzilana advised (AH). IDEAL MAN was ridden by Apprentice J Gates. ROOIPOORT raced without blinkers (declared 30 September 2020 at 13H04). NUMERICAL raced equipped with blinkers (declared 1 October 2020 at 08H20). VETERINARY SURGEON REPORTED: WESTERN DANCE mouth injury. SCRATCHED: GOLD ROCK Stipes permission - concerns regarding the track condition. Advised 1 October 2020 at 08H06. PICADILLY SQUARE and IN THE GAME reserve runners. Advised 1 October 2020 at 07H50. IN FOR A PENNY bolted the course, immediate reinstatement (NHA / 16H17) Betting 34/10.
