When leaving the parade ring SAIL FOR JOY broke free from its groom, bolted, was brought in hand shortly thereafter, inspected by the Veterinary Surgeon, declared fit to race, united with Jockey Munger and proceeded to the start. This caused a delay to the start of this Race. Trainer Kenny was advised that should SAIL FOR JOY behave in a similar manner in future, it may be suspended. BOLD VIKING was slow, losing 2 lengths. SAIL FOR JOY was hanging in, in the concluding stages. JUBILEE LINE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. En route to the racecourse SAIL FOR JOY spread its left hind shoe. The Course Farrier made a number of attempts to refit the shoe, however, was unsuccessful due to this gelding being fractious. Permission was granted for the right hind shoe to be removed and SAIL FOR JOY raced unshod behind. Vet: BOLD VIKING - abnormal respiratory noise. Scratched: TOKYO DRIFT - insufficient recovery time. VULCAN - under veterinary treatment.
