TT Y

The start of this Race was delayed due to VARS PRIDE having to be examined by the course Veterinary Surgeon and the starting stalls having to be repositioned. SEATTLE SEAHAWK jumped inwards leaving the stalls. MY FAVOURITE BROWN (AUS), COMBAT MUSTER and VARZEN were slow into stride. In view of the performance of GAISCE GOLD, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. Jockey Zackey reported that VARS PRIDE did not stride out freely in running. SKY HIGH FLYER was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. VARS PRIDE raced with a pressure halter. Vet: GAISCE GOLD - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. VARS PRIDE - lame left front. RACING FREE - mouth injury. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at today's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at today's race meeting were checked, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed, as per normal procedure.
