AKON ACGUA reared in the starting stalls and lost one length. Jockey Habib, the rider of AKON ACGUA, reported this gelding took no interest in the running. BUSHMAN was hanging out from the 400m and running around in the concluding stages. In view of the performance of SWEEFT, the Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine this colt. Jockey Greyling, the rider of SWEEFT appeared before the Board and was afforded an opportunity to explain this colt's poor run. He advised the board that this colt was asked for its run at approximately the 400mm, whereupon it proceeded to hang-out and was awkwardly placed against the outside running rail. This colt hesitated and did not run on as expected. Jockey Greyling has intimated that SWEEFT needed to be gelded as discussed with the trainer. The Board noted Jockey Greyling's explanation. MIDNIGHT RAMBLER was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. AKON CAGUA raced without pacifiers. SWEEFT and SHUSHA raced in steels. Vet: AKON CAGUA and SWEEFT - examined post-race and nothing untoward was found.
