GOT FLY shifted out on jumping and bumped the hindquarters of FANTASTIC KAKA. Shortly after the start, SANTA FE SUN was crowded for room between REDKIRK WARRIOR which shifted in and BRILLIANT SHINE which was awkwardly placed outside the heels of MR GNOCCHI. From wide barriers, TRAVEL BROTHER and KABAYAN were shifted across behind runners in the early stages. Passing the 1500 Metres, REDKIRK WARRIOR got its head up after being bumped by BRILLIANT SHINE which was taken out by MR GNOCCHI. REDKIRK WARRIOR proved very difficult to settle in the early and middle stages and for some distance after making the turn near the 900 Metres was checked away from the heels of BRILLIANT SHINE when continuing to prove very difficult to settle. In this incident, REDKIRK WARRIOR shifted out and bumped KABAYAN. DASHING FELLOW was unable to obtain clear running in the early part of the Straight. Near the 250 Metres, FLAME HERO, which was giving ground, was steadied when crowded for room between BRILLIANT SHINE and GOT FLY, both of which shifted slightly. Passing the 150 Metres, REDKIRK WARRIOR shifted out abruptly, resulting in GOT FLY being hampered when steadied away from the heels of REDKIRK WARRIOR. After being straightened by its rider, REDKIRK WARRIOR again got its head on the side and shifted out over the concluding stages. In the Straight, ALL YOU WISH lay in and proved difficult to ride. Throughout the race, FLAME HERO travelled wide and without cover. A veterinary inspection of ALL YOU WISH and REDKIRK WARRIOR immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. REDKIRK WARRIOR, MULTIVICTORY and APOLLO'S CHOICE were sent for sampling.
