GREAT TOPLIGHT was withdrawn on raceday morning by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame left fore). Before being allowed to race again, GREAT TOPLIGHT will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. CALIFORNIA CHERISH was crowded for room on jumping between SUGAR CITY which shifted out abruptly and ADDOLE which shifted in away from JET SET DRAGON. In this incident, SUGAR CITY became unbalanced after bumping CALIFORNIA CHERISH. From the outside barrier, GALAXY PRANCER was steadied shortly after the start and shifted across behind runners. After the 1500 Metres, WATCH KING became unbalanced after being bumped by OSCAR MIRACLE which shifted in. Passing the winning post on the first occasion, WATCH KING again became unbalanced after jumping a shadow on the track. Approaching the 1000 Metres, SUGAR CITY got its head up when awkwardly placed close to the heels of BEST JADE TRIUMPH. Approaching the 250 Metres, SUGAR CITY was awkwardly placed close to the heels of ADDOLE. GALAXY PRANCER made the Home Turn wide after initially being taken out by CALIFORNIA CHERISH. The performance of JET SET DRAGON, which finished tailed out, was considered unacceptable. Before being allowed to race again, JET SET DRAGON will be required to perform to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. A veterinary inspection of MISTER MARC immediately following the race did not show any significant findings. BEST JADE TRIUMPH and GALAXY PRANCER were sent for sampling.
