LOVE HAPPENS was slow losing two lengths and thereafter was slow into stride. PACIFIC CHESTNUT was slow losing two lengths and thereafter was slow into stride. Jockey Munger, rider of PACIFIC CHESTNUT reported that this gelding took no interest throughout. In view of the performance from POWER TOWER (AUS), which raced wide in the early stages and tired quickly in the latter stages, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding on his return to the unsaddling enclosure and submit a report. BALLAD OF THE SEA (AUS) was hanging out from the 300m. DOUBLEMINT and SPRING MAN were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Ownership of ANCESTRY should read: Messrs R D P Caboche-Adam, M L Jean Hardy, P O'Doherty and N M Shirtliff and Mr and Mrs D Naik. Colours: White and blue halved horizontally, pink sleeves, blue cap. Vet: PACIFIC CHESTNUT and POWER TOWER (AUS) - examined post race and no obvious abnormalities were detected. ANCESTRY - returned making an abnormal respiratory noise.
