VINCY began only fairly.
From an outside barrier, WINNING DRAGON was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners.
Near the 2000 Metres, NORDIC SKY got its head up when awkwardly placed behind BLASTOISE. After this, NORDIC SKY continued to travel keenly and again got its head up approaching the 1800 Metres when steadied to avoid the heels of ABOVE (R Maia) which shifted in when not properly clear. R Maia was advised that whilst the Stewards were satisfied that the racing manners of NORDIC SKY had played a part in this incident, nonetheless he was severely reprimanded and told to ensure that he gives proper clearance prior to shifting ground in similar circumstances. After this, NORDIC SKY continued to race with its head up for some distance.
After the race, the Veterinary Officer reported that FAST PACE was making an abnormal breathing noise. A veterinary inspection of FAST PACE immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
EXCEPTIONAL NICE, ABOVE and VINCY were sent for sampling.
