The start of this Race was delayed due to a severe electrical storm. AZKUR was slow into stride. In view of the performance of PINFANTA, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this filly. Jockey Zackey reported that he felt something amiss with KAHLUA ROSE in running. In the concluding stages, AZKUR, which rolled in, was carried out marginally by BRAXTON, which shifted out away from the crop. Thereafter both these fillies shifted out independently of each other. An Objection was lodged by Assistant Trainer van Zyl on behalf of the second place horse, AZKUR, against the winner, BRAXTON, on the grounds of intimidation in the concluding stages. The Objection Board, after giving regard to the evidence put forward by all parties, was of the opinion that this incident had not affected the result of the race and therefore overruled the objection and allowed the Judges result to stand. Assistant Trainer van Zyl's deposit was refunded. BRAXTON was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: PINFANTA - lame right front. KAHLUA ROSE - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. Scratched: BRIGHT BRONTE - viral infection. The course farrier on duty did not report there to be anything amiss with the shoes fitted to the horses that raced at tonight's race meeting. The passports of all the runners that raced at tonight's race meeting were checked, identities, AHS and Equine Influenza vaccinations confirmed.
