The start of this Race was delayed due to the withdrawal of LEPRECHAUN'S LOVE by the course Veterinary Surgeon. Jockey van der Merwe did not ride at today's racemeeting due to muscle spasms - medically indisposed. He was replaced on his mounts. REVENTADOR, THAT'S LIFE and THE TURF KING lost one length. SINGFONICO stumbled shortly after the start. LEPRECHAUN'S LOVE reared in the stalls, injuring itself and was scratched by the Veterinary Surgeon. The Starting Stall Certificate for this gelding has been withdrawn. CRASSUS was hanging in from the 500m. Jockey David reported that HYPER JET made an abnormal respiratory noise in running. Jockey Herholdt reported that SAILOR MAN took no interest in running. In view of the Starter's report with regard to LEPRECHAUN'S LOVE, this gelding was suspended for a period of 7 days and until such time as it proves tractable loading into the starting stalls. LEPRECHAUN'S LOVE may not be presented for repassing during this period. SIRTAIN (AUS) was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. HYPER JET and THE TURF KING raced with a tongue tie on. Vet: SINGFONICO and SAILOR MAN - examined post race, nothing obvious detected. THE TURF KING and HYPER JET - abnormal respiratory noise. RAISE A FLAG - not striding out right front. Scratched: SARDIUS - abnormal temperature. JINGLE - not striding out both front. LEPRECHAUN'S LOVE - injured in stalls.
