As the start was effected, TELECOM MISSILE lifted its front feet off the ground, resulting in the horse beginning only fairly. WINNING WARRIOR shifted out at the start and bumped RAGING BLAZE. SPICY GRILL shifted in at the start and brushed ONE STEP AHEAD. GLORIOUS BUDDY and DAY DAY RICH bumped at the start. LUCKY MARYKNOLL shifted out at the start and inconvenienced SEVENTH SEA. RAGING BLAZE was awkwardly placed outside WINNING WARRIOR approaching the 1100 Metres when being steadied to obtain cover behind that horse. After the 1000 Metres, ONE STEP AHEAD shifted in abruptly away from the heels of TELECOM MISSILE after momentarily being awkwardly placed inside the heels of that horse. When ONE STEP AHEAD shifted in, RAGING BLAZE was inconvenienced. At the 500 Metres, TELECOM MISSILE was awkwardly placed close to the heels of LUCKY MARYKNOLL. At the entrance to the Straight, KELMIMI WINS raced tight outside LUCKY MARYKNOLL which shifted out to obtain clear running. Passing the 400 Metres, SEVENTH SEA travelled close to the heels of SPICY GRILL when being shifted to the outside of that horse. Throughout the race, KELMIMI WINS travelled wide and without cover. A veterinary inspection of SPICY GRILL immediately following the race including an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea. Before being allowed to race again, SPICY GRILL will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. A veterinary inspection of COOL ACE immediately following the race found that horse to have an epiglottic entrapment. A veterinary inspection of KELMIMI WINS immediately following the race found that horse to be a "roarer” which had previously been reported. ONE STEP AHEAD, ALLOY KING and LUCKY MARYKNOLL were sent for sampling.
