RAIL TRIP was slow into stride. BEAT IT, PEARL TIARA and SAND PRINCESS lost one length. RETURN FLIGHT and RAIL TRIP selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. RAIL TRIP was squeezed out shortly after the start. Jockey Khan the rider of BELIEVE THE BEST reported that he felt something amiss with this filly and as a result did not persevere with his ride in the latter stages. Jockey Lerena the rider of GIMME A BRAKE NATE and Jockey Orffer the rider of RUNAWAY GAL reported that they felt something amiss with their respective mounts. Jockey Zackey the rider of MAZARI reported this filly not striding out freely in the latter stages. The Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine BELIEVE THE BEST, GIMME A BRAKE NATE, RUNAWAY GAL and MAZARI. STORM DESTINY was carried inwards at approximately the 250 metre mark and was hanging out in the latter stages. DAGMAR was hanging in, in the latter stages. BEAT IT was hanging out from approximately the 300 metre mark. RUNAWAY GAL and SAND PRINCESS raced with ear muffs. Vet: GIMME A BRAKE NATE - fatigued and not striding out right fore. BELIEVE THE BEST, RUNAWAY GAL and MAZARI - nothing obvious detected.
