ABSOLUTE HONOUR (K260): Crowded near the 800 Metres. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. CONSPIRATOR (K090): No report. BASIC INSTINCT (K289): In the early stages was shifted across behind runners. GOLDENTRONICMIGHTY (K002): Jumped only fairly. Near the 250 Metres lay in and was bumped. COPARTNER FLEET (K342): Leaving the 800 Metres got its head up when being steadied whilst in the lead. Sent for sampling post-race. A LA CHAMP (K179): Near the 800 Metres was steadied when crowded by ABSOLUTE HONOUR which was taken in by GLORIOUS KINGDOM (J Orman) when that runner hung in and away from GOLDENTRONICMIGHTY despite the efforts of its rider J Orman. As the Stewards were satisfied that Jockey Orman had made every endeavour to prevent his mount from shifting in no action was taken. After the race an endoscopic examination was conducted on A LA CHAMP at the request of Trainer T P Yung. The Veterinary Surgeon said this examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse’s trachea. Before being allowed to race again, A LA CHAMP will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. BETTER AND BETTER (K277): For a short distance after the 400 Metres had difficulty obtaining clear running. GLORIOUS KINGDOM (K269): After the event J Orman stated that the intention was to hold a more forward position but after jumping only fairly his mount was then crowded between WINNING MACHINE and RUN RAN RUN, both of which shifted ground which resulted in GLORIOUS KINGDOM settling further back. He added that his mount, which was having its first race start, hung in throughout the event and near the 800 Metres was steadied to avoid LOVEISINTHEAIR. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. SUPER PACE (K349): No report. WINNING MACHINE (K239): Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event. SUNNY SING SPIRIT (K188): No report. LOVEISINTHEAIR (J550): Sent for sampling post-race. RUN RAN RUN (J108): Near the 250 Metres was bumped by GOLDENTRONICMIGHTY which lay in. SHINE BRIGHT (H385): Raced very wide and without cover for the majority of the event.
