STORM RIDER (J027): From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages. Sent for sampling post-race. LA FORZA (J285): After the event Z Purton stated that his mount was obliged to race wide and without cover for the majority of the event. He added that when placed under pressure LA FORZA did not respond to his riding and when he was concerned with the horse’s action he did not ride it out over the final 150 Metres. A veterinary inspection immediately following the race found that horse to be lame in its left front leg.
