NATIONAL KEY jumped awkwardly leaving the stalls. Apprentice Hewitson, the rider of KURT'S APPROVAL, and Jockey Sampson, the rider of NATIONAL KEY, reported that they felt something amiss with their mounts in running. Jockey Chambers reported that OVAL OFFICE choked up in running. Apprentice Lerena reported that FLAG OF FRANCE did not stride out freely in running. At approximately the 200m, VAR'S YOUR DADDY broke down and was eased out of the race by Jockey Wrogemann. WITCH KING was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. When questioned regarding the improved performance of WITCH KING, Trainer Binda explained to the Board that in his opinion this gelding was better suited to racing at the Vaal and in straight races. He has undertaken where possible to race this gelding in races up the Vaal straight in future. KURT'S APPROVAL is a gelding. KURT'S APPROVAL raced with Club colours. WITCH KING and OVAL OFFICE raced equipped with alumites in front and unshod behind. Vet: WITCH KING - mild post race distress. KURT'S APPROVAL - not striding out right front. VAR'S YOUR DADDY - broke down. Fractured left front sesamoids. Humanely euthanased. Samples collected for analysis. COMBAT MUSTER - speedy cut left hind. FLAG OF FRANCE - lame left front. NATIONAL KEY - examined post race, nothing obvious detected.
