When parading, WATER DIVINER proved very fractious and kicked out on a number of occasions. When kicking out, WATER DIVINER made contact with the parade ring barrier. WATER DIVINER was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said that the horse had sustained multiple cuts and abrasions to both hind legs and as such was not suitable to race. Acting on this advice, the Stewards ordered the withdrawal of WATER DIVINER. Before being allowed to race again, WATER DIVINER will be required to undergo a satisfactory parade test and be subjected to an official veterinary examination. NEW ASIA SUNRISE stumbled badly at the start and shifted in, resulting in PREMIERE being crowded for room. HOUSE OF FUN and MAGIC POWER were slow to begin. Shortly after the start, DRAGON MASTER was shifted across behind runners. Near the 250 Metres, HOUSE OF FUN was directed to the outside of SEA JADE to obtain clear running and shortly after this improved into a tight run outside that horse. HOUSE OF FUN was then momentarily crowded for room passing the 200 Metres when SEA JADE (T Berry) shifted out marginally. T Berry was advised that whilst the movement outwards from SEA JADE was only slight, nonetheless he must make every endeavour to prevent his mounts from shifting ground and causing crowding to other runners. PREMIERE and HOUSE OF FUN were sent for sampling.
