BLACK GARDENIA was restless in the stall, got its leg caught up on the side partitioning of the stalls, was taken out and examined by the Veterinary Surgeon and then reloaded causing a delay. MERKABA was slow into stride. In view of the report from the Starter regarding BLACK GARDENIA, Trainer Ennion will be advised to have this filly re-schooled before her next engagement. TROU AUX BICHES raced green. DOUBLE ROSIE and HAPPY GIRL raced wide on the bend. When questioned regarding the performance from ROCK TRIP today, compared to the filly's previous run on 23 June 2018 at Kenilworth over 1400m when she finished 16.05 lengths behind the winner, Assistant Trainer Mrs M Arnold, acting on behalf of Trainer Mrs Bass-Robinson, told the Stewards that after a reasonable first run the filly had disappointed in her second start which was in very wet conditions, that had led to the Meeting being abandoned immediately after the running of that race. The Board noted her explanation. ROCK TRIP and MERKABA selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. DOUBLE ROSIE raced fitted with ear muffs. Vet: BLACK GARDENIA - examined at the start and declared fit to race. DOUBLE ROSIE - returned blowing. SECRET PATH and SETSOKOTSANE - returned making an abnormal respiratory noise. LUCILLE - returned with an open old wound on the left hind.
