WARRIOR'S REST jumped awkwardly leaving the stalls. VERITAS broke through the front gate, was restrained by the rider, returned to the start, examined by the Course Veterinary Surgeon, and was subsequently scratched. In view of the Starter's report with regard to VERITAS, this filly was suspended for a period of 7 days and until such time as she proves tractable loading into the starting stalls with a companion. Suspension dates: 28 December 2018 to 03 January 2019. Jockey Lerena struck the horse GREEN HAZE more than three times on consecutive strides. GREEN HAZE was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. GREEN HAZE raced with a Cornell collar. ANJOM (AUS) raced equipped with Reimer open toe shoes in front and alumites behind. Scratched: ZODIAC RULER (AUS) - stipes permission. POPSICLE TOES - insufficient recovery time. VERITAS - injured in stalls. After the running of race 7, an electrical storm moved in over the Vaal racecourse. After an hour and forty minute delay, with no sign of the storm dissipating, and after consultation with Phumelela management, it was decided to abandon races 8 and 9.
