CHATER MIKADO was slow to begin. BEST WIN began awkwardly and then shortly after the start raced in restricted room between FIRST IN COMMAND and KING OF THE DAY. Shortly after the start, JUN DAO was steadied away from the heels of HORSE GALORE which shifted out. After this, JUN DAO was taken across behind runners. Passing the 800 Metres, GOLDEN BAUHINIA was checked away from the heels of FIRST IN COMMAND which shifted in after being bumped by KING OF THE DAY (G Cheyne) which shifted in slightly. G Cheyne was severely reprimanded and advised to ensure that he leaves sufficient racing room for runners on his inside in future. Making the first turn after the 600 Metres, BEST WIN lost ground after getting its head up and shifting out across the heels of CHARITY SPIRIT after being brushed by FIRST IN COMMAND which made that turn awkwardly. Near the 400 Metres, CHATER MIKADO was steadied when crowded for room between GOLDEN BAUHINIA which shifted out slightly away from FIRST IN COMMAND and BEST WIN which shifted in. A veterinary inspection of KING OF THE DAY after the race including an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of mucopus in the horse’s trachea. FIRST IN COMMAND and HORSE GALORE were sent for sampling.
