PLAY THE NIGHT was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. THE PRIVATE jumped in as the start was affected resulting in MERLIN FROM BERLIN and DI ME being carried inwards and DI ME making contact and unbalancing ROCKY COAST. Thereafter approaching the 1300 metre mark THE PRIVATE shifted in slightly. Simultaneously PLAY THE NIGHT shifted out slightly resulting in DI ME and ROCKY COAST becoming momentarily cramped and unbalanced. THE PRIVATE and DI ME over-raced in the early stages. THE PRIVATE was hanging in, in the straight. In view of the performances of TRIPPLE EXPLOSION and CAPTAIN KANGAROO the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine these geldings. Jockey Wright the rider of MERLIN FROM BERLIN reported that this gelding faltered for no apparent reason. In view of this, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this gelding. THE PRIVATE raced with ear muffs. Vet: TRIPPLE EXPLOSION - coughing. CAPTAIN KANGAROO and MERLIN FROM BERLIN - nothing obvious detected. ARCHILLES - abnormal respiratory noise. Scratched: BORN TO PERFORM - abscess on jaw.
