LIGHTNING BOLT began only fairly.
EVERYONE’S VICTORY was steadied in the early stages to obtain cover from a wide barrier and approaching the 1150 Metres was awkwardly placed outside the heels of ELON.
Also from a wide barrier, LUCKY FUN was steadied in the early stages to obtain cover.
Near the 800 Metres, CALL ME TEDDY was awkwardly placed close to the heels of MAN STAR when being shifted across behind that horse.
Passing the 600 Metres, ELON and CALL ME TEDDY bumped as a result of CALL ME TEDDY shifting in marginally away from the heels of MAN STAR. After this, ELON and CALL ME TEDDY raced tight, resulting in CALL ME TEDDY becoming unbalanced passing the 500 Metres when bumped on the hindquarters by ELON which was racing tight outside CALIFORNIA CONCORD. CALL ME TEDDY was then steadied passing the 400 Metres when continuing to race tight between SUPER WIN DRAGON and ELON which was taken out marginally by CALIFORNIA CONCORD.
Near the 100 Metres, the whip of Z Purton (CALL ME TEDDY) was knocked from his grasp by the whip of J Moreira (ELON).
Throughout the race, MAN STAR and SUPER WIN DRAGON travelled wide and without cover.
A veterinary inspection of VALIANT ELEGANCE immediately following the race found that horse to be a "roarer” which had previously been reported.
A veterinary inspection of CALL ME TEDDY immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
CALL ME TEDDY, JOLLY RULER and SUPER WIN DRAGON were sent for sampling.
