MR T was stubborn to load. Trainer Naidoo was advised to re-school this gelding. THE BAYOU was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. WALL STREET TRADER was squeezed out shortly after the start. THE BAYOU was hanging in badly throughout. BRITISH POUND was hanging in over the final 300 metres. Jockey Delpech reported GOLDEN TOWER was not striding out freely in running. In view of the performances of MR T and CAPTAIN CRUNCH, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these geldings. Vet: GOLDEN TOWER - coughing. MR T and CAPTAIN CRUNCH - nothing obvious detected.
