IMA SINGLE MAN (D476): Jumped only fairly. Despite being ridden along in the early stages failed to show sufficient pace to hold a more forward position. CALL ME GLORIOUS (H410): Sent for sampling post-race. GRACIOUS EXPRESS (J188): Sent for sampling post-race. GREAT STATE (J124): Near the 900 Metres shifted out when being steadied away from AORAKI SUMMIT. PRESTIGE ALWAYS (J300): Was fractious in the starting gates, jumped awkwardly and lost considerable ground. Before being allowed to race again, PRESTIGE ALWAYS will be required to perform satisfactorily in a barrier trial. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have sustained a small wound to the right hind leg. AORAKI SUMMIT (H300): A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to have bled from both nostrils. As this was the second occasion that AORAKI SUMMIT had bled, the horse is permanently barred from any further racing. PULSAR STRIDER (G407): Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event. Noted to have bled from both nostrils after the race. As this was the second occasion that PULSAR STRIDER had bled, the horse is permanently barred from any further racing. MIGHTY COMMANDER (J360): After the 1000 Metres got its head up when being steadied to allow CALL ME GLORIOUS to cross. Continued to race keenly for some distance thereafter and near the 800 Metres got its head up again when being steadied to avoid GRACIOUS EXPRESS (B Avdulla) which shifted in when not clear. B Avdulla was reprimanded. RICH HORSE (J191): For some distance approaching the 700 Metres was steadied to avoid MIGHTY COMMANDER. VICTOR THE RAPID (J393): No report.
