KING DANCER, which was leaning on the outside of its barrier stall, was slow to begin. AMBITIOUS GENERAL hung out in the middle stages. Throughout the race, AMPLE GAINS travelled wide and without cover. When questioned regarding the performance of KING DANCER, D Whyte stated that he was obliged to race further back than had been anticipated due to the manner in which the horse began. He said although the tempo of the race was slow, KING DANCER travelled satisfactorily behind the eventual winner, ABOVE ALL. He said when he shifted out from behind ABOVE ALL rounding the Home Turn, KING DANCER commenced to hang out and was somewhat disappointing in that it failed to respond to his riding in the Straight as he thought it should. A veterinary inspection of KING DANCER after the race did not show any significant findings. KING DANCER, ABOVE ALL and BEAUTY FOREVER were sent for sampling.
