HIGHLAND DRAGON shifted out at the start and bumped DOUBLE MASTER. HAPPY CENTURY began awkwardly and then from the outside barrier was shifted across behind runners shortly after the start. Also from a wide barrier, SEASONS KING was steadied and shifted across behind runners shortly after the start. After the 700 Metres, PERFECT SMART got its head up when awkwardly placed behind GIDDY GIDDY. Then making the first turn near the 550 Metres, PERFECT SMART again got its head up, shifted out and raced tight against ORIENTAL FANTASIA. In the early part of the Straight, HEAVENLY MASTERS was awkwardly placed close to the heels of ORIENTAL FANTASIA and passing the 300 Metres shifted to the inside of that horse to obtain clear running. Throughout the race, GLORY BOY travelled wide and without cover. A veterinary inspection of DOUBLE MASTER immediately following the race including an endoscopic examination showed a substantial amount of blood in the horse's trachea. Before being allowed to race again, DOUBLE MASTER will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. DOUBLE MASTER, GIDDY GIDDY and HIGHLAND DRAGON were sent for sampling.
