LITTLE BIRD began awkwardly and was slow to begin.
HANDSOME BO BO, which was fractious in the barriers, began very awkwardly and consequently lost ground. This resulted in both HANDSOME BO BO and LITTLE BIRD settling further back in the field.
MONTREAL shifted in at the start and bumped HIGH FIVE which in turn shifted in and made contact with FANTASTIC FEELING.
HINCHINLOVE shifted out at the start and bumped FORTUNE BOOTH. HINCHINLOVE and FORTUNE BOOTH were then steadied in the early stages to obtain cover.
Also from the outside barrier, SUPER TURBO was steadied in the early stages and shifted across behind runners to obtain cover.
After travelling a short distance, FANTASTIC FEELING was awkwardly placed outside the heels of FAT TURTLE which shifted out.
A veterinary inspection of HIGH FIVE and LITTLE BIRD immediately following the race did not show any significant findings.
YEE CHEONG BABY and FAT TURTLE were sent for sampling.
