AMAZING AGILITY began only fairly and shortly after the start was shifted across behind runners. TAI SMART shifted out at the start and bumped LET US WIN. Shortly after the start, LOTUS STRIKES BACK shifted in and brushed BRING IT ON. From the outside barriers, JE PENSE and HAY RUN were steadied in the early stages and shifted across to obtain cover. Despite being ridden along for a considerable distance in the early stages, CLOUD NINE failed to muster speed and consequently raced towards the rear of the field. Passing the 1600 Metres, KING’S MAN momentarily raced tight between CIRCUIT HASSLER and BRING IT ON which was awkwardly placed inside the heels of KING OF MONGOLIA. CIRCUIT HASSLER was held up for clear running until approaching the 300 Metres. Approaching and passing the 300 Metres, LOTUS STRIKES BACK was directed out to obtain clear running. Passing the 300 Metres, KING’S MAN was momentarily awkwardly placed inside the heels of BRING IT ON. Near the 250 Metres, TAI SMART got its head on the side and shifted out towards the heels of LET US WIN. Close to the finishing line, CIRCUIT HASSLER raced in restricted room between VICTORY BOYS and SERGEANT TITANIUM which drifted out under pressure. Throughout the race, SERGEANT TITANIUM travelled wide and without cover. After the race, G Mosse reported that AMAZING AGILITY did not feel comfortable in its action throughout the race. A veterinary inspection of AMAZING AGILITY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. Before being allowed to race again, AMAZING AGILITY will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. A veterinary inspection of KING OF MONGOLIA and JE PENSE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. CIRCUIT HASSLER, SERGEANT TITANIUM and VICTORY BOYS were sent for sampling.
