THE STARTER REPORTED: a) BEZOS (M Winnaar) and COUP DE MAIN (G Behr) were restless in the stalls. b) BRIGHT KEY (R Fourie) fly jumped and, as a consequence, was slow into stride. c) DOLLAR BRAND (O Noach) and COUP DE MAIN (G Behr) jumped slow, losing one length. d) PAPER TRAIL (A Marcus) jumped awkwardly outwards and made heavy contact with WEST COAST WONDER (J Bekker) which in turn bumped COOL CAPTAIN (S Mbhele) outwards THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED: a) At the 200m BRIGHT KEY (R Fourie) was directed outwards to avoid the heels of a tiring WEST COAST WONDER (J Bekker) and brushed COOL CAPTAIN (S Mbhele) outwards. b) When questioned regarding the apparent improved performance of ESSOS compared to this gelding's previous run on the 16th December 2020, Trainer M Robinson told the stewards that ESSOS had drawn wide on that occasion and the rider had to use this gelding to obtain a forward position which had resulted in this gelding over racing in the early and middle stages. Thereafter, he had hung out and had tired from the 200m. Trainer Robinson's explanation was confirmed when viewing the patrol film. However, his attention was drawn to the Rules pertaining to in and out running. c) Jockey L Ferraris, the rider of COOLUSIVE, reported that this gelding raced with his tongue over the bit. d) In view of the performance of WEST COAST WONDER (J Bekker) which raced to the front of the field and tired from the 300m, the veterinary surgeon was requested to examine. e) Jockey G Behr, the rider of COUP DE MAIN, reported that this colt changed stride continually in running. The veterinary surgeon was requested to examine. f) ESSOS, the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer M Robinson was advised.
