LYRIC OF LIGHT jumped slow, losing 1 length. THE VOW jumped slow, losing 1 length. PRINCESS ANGELINE was restless in the stalls. AMERICAN PRAYER raced in Club colours. Jockey Dillon reported that LYRIC OF LIGHT choked up in the running. At the 150m, SNOWDROPS had to steady off the heels of AMERICAN PRAYER which raced green and rolled in. Thereafter ACADEMIC GOLD and AMERICAN PRAYER came together and bumped at the 100m, resulting in ACADEMIC GOLD becoming unbalanced. Trainer Marcus appeared before the Board and was interviewed regarding the performance of WINDSOR BEAT today as compared to her previous and first run at Durbanville on 5th October. The race of the 5th October was reviewed and it confirmed Mr Marcus' statement that this filly had raced green and had been forced to ease off the heels of SNOWDROPS at the 450m, which had resulted in a loss of momentum. The video further confirmed that she had been ridden strongly to the finish after this incident. It was his opinion that, but for this ease at the 450m, she may well have finished in front of SNOWDROPS, which finished some 3 lengths off the winner today. He also stated that she had been working well at the training centre. This explanation was noted. WINDSOR BEAT and ACADEMIC GOLD were selected for the taking of specimens for analysis. Vet: LYRIC OF LIGHT - nothing obvious detected STILL TAPPIN - abnormal respiratory noise Scratched: WATCH ME NOW and RAIN KEEPS FALLING - coughing.
