THE STARTER REPORTED:
a) Fair start.
THE STIPENDIARY STEWARDS REPORTED :
a) KEEP THE LIGHTS ON (*R Venniker) over-raced in the early and middle stages.
b) In the concluding stages, OSCAR'S WINNER (G van Niekerk) was switched in when awkwardly placed on the heels of MOUNT LAUREL (C Habib) which shifted out away from the crop from the 100m.
c) Jockey C Zackey reported that MARINA did not stride out freely in the running. The Veterinary Surgeon was requested to examine.
d) When questioned regarding his riding of MARINA, Jockey C Zackey told the Stewards that this filly had been 'sluggish' out of the starting stalls and as she does not have early pace in her races, he elected to position this filly at the rear of the field. He added that the filly had been one paced around the bend and he had been unable to improve position until straightening when he had asked this filly for an effort. It was his opinion that the filly had remained one paced despite his use of the crop and a vigorous hand ride in the home straight and that he felt MARINA shorten her stride in the closing stages. Mr Zackey was advised that his riding of the filly had come under notice in the early and middle stages of the Race and that he had been content to have a rearward position in the Race despite the form line of this filly suggesting that she is usually positioned more prominently in her races. It was also placed on record that the Veterinary Surgeon had inspected the filly and had found no abnormalities. Jockey C Zackey was further advised that his explanation would be recorded and the future performances of this filly will be monitored.
e) HOMELY GIRL (K de Melo), the winner, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer J J van Vuuren advised (LB).
f) ECSTATIC GREEN (G Lerena), placed second, was selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Trainer S G Tarry advised (NS).
JOCKEY / EQUIPMENT CHANGES :
a) SUPREME QUEST raced with a compression mask.
RACE CARD CHANGES / OTHER :
a) Nil.
THE VETERINARY SURGEON REPORTED :
a) MARINA : Nothing obvious detected.
SCRATCHINGS :
a) LOOK YOURSELF : Not striding out. Withdrawn by the Veterinary Surgeon at 14h34 and the betting was 33/1. Rule 53.5 applies.
