JADE CHINA was withdrawn on 2.1.09 by order of the Stewards (retired on 2.1.09). MULTI-WIN SPIRIT was slow to begin. ZERO GRAVITY, which was standing with its head turned to the left, was slow into stride and then after having taken time to muster travelled wide and without cover for the remainder of the race. Approaching the turn at the 800 Metres, SO NICE, which was proving difficult to settle, was steadied away from the heels of NOBLE ZOOM which was carried in slightly by LITTLE BIG BOY. No action was taken. For a considerable distance after the 400 Metres, SO NICE was held up and unable to improve when travelling behind LITTLE BIG BOY which commenced to give ground, then after the 100 Metres was again steadied when having difficulty obtaining clear running. In the Straight, MOONGLOW hung in. LITTLE BIG BOY and ZERO GRAVITY were sent for an official veterinary inspection. A veterinary inspection of LITTLE BIG BOY and ZERO GRAVITY after the race did not show any significant findings. GRAND GENERAL and MOONGLOW were sent for sampling.
