POWERED BY MALHUB spread its left front shoe en-route to the start, which was attended to by the Farrier. SEVEN SOVEREIGNS lost 3 lengths. Trainer Botes was advised to re-school this gelding prior to its next engagement. BEHIND THE FIRE was slow into stride. In the concluding stages, TOBY COATES, which Jockey Khumalo reported changed strides continually in running, was tightened for galloping room between POWERED BY MALHUB, which was carried out marginally by STRIKERS BOY, which shifted out away from the crop, and WELLSPRING, which was hanging in from the 200m. In view of Jockey Khumalo's report, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. WELLSPRING was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. FLAME IN MY HEART raced equipped with a tongue tie. Vet: TOBY COATES - not striding out left hind. BEHIND THE FIRE - abnormal respiratory noise, severe. BLING BALL - coughing. COUNTESS VAROVSKI - abnormal respiratory noise. Scratched: SINGASWEWIN - insufficient recovery time.
