The start of this race was delayed due to HIGHWAY EXPRESS, which pulled its left front shoe en route to start, being attended to by the farrier and the delay in the previous race. RACING MAN was unruly in the stalls and was subsequently scratched by the Veterinary Surgeon. The starting stalls for this gelding was withdrawn. CAPE WILDCAT and WESTERN OASIS were stubborn loading. HIGHWAY EXPRESS was stubborn loading and lost 2 lengths. STOCKBRIDGE was restless in the stalls. THE RUSSIAN SAILOR jumped inwards leaving the stalls. SILVER HUB and TOM TOM lost 1 length. In view of the Starter's report with regard to RACING MAN, this gelding was suspended for a period of 7 days and until such time as it proves tractable in the starting stalls with a companion. Suspension dates: 22 February 2019 to 28 February 2019. RACING MAN may not be presented for re-passing during this period. Jockey Storey reported that WRITTEN IN STONE changed strides continually in running. Jockey Khumalo reported that MOVIE MAGIC was faltering throughout in running. At approximately the 200m SETABLAZE was brushed outwards by WESTERN OASIS, which shifted out away from the crop and was straightened. PALACE ASSEMBLY was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. FAIRBANKS and THE ICE WAR raced equipped with a tongue tie. Vet: WRITTEN IN STONE and MOVIE MAGIC - examined post-race, nothing obvious detected. Scratched: TONGUE TWISTER - insufficient recovery time. AT HAND - ineligible (winner 19 February 2019). RACING MAN - injured in the stalls.
