SUPER BABY (G364): Sent for sampling post-race. BEAUTY MISSION (G098): After the race, M Chadwick reported that his intention was to endeavour to find a position closer to the rail in the early stages, but when unable to do so was obliged to race wide and without cover for the majority of the event. He added as a result BEAUTY MISSION gave ground in the Home Straight. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have bled from both nostrils. Before being allowed to race again, BEAUTY MISSION will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. BEAU GOSSE (G389): Jumped awkwardly, shifted in, made contact with MERCHANT PRINCE and lost ground. In the early stages over-raced and refused to settle and for some distance after the 1200 Metres was checked away from YOUNG VICTORY. RELIABLE PROFIT (G462): Bumped shortly after the start and then from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. In the early part of the Home Straight had difficulty obtaining clear running when endeavouring to shift to the outside of MR ALADDIN as that runner shifted out slightly. Then raced in restricted room for some distance near the 100 Metres between MR ALADDIN and PALACE PAL. AFFIRM (H306): No report. PALACE PAL (G172): From the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. DIAMOND DIAMOND (H189): Bumped and became unbalanced shortly after the start.
