DRAGON FALLS (IRE) was slow into stride and then raced awkwardly for a short distance. INTRIGO (GB) was slow to begin. STRING THEORY (IRE) commenced awkwardly. Approaching the 1200 metres RISBY (IRE) restrained from the heels of other runners. From on straightening until the 200 metres, DISA LEADER (SAF) was blocked for a clear run. Near the 150 metres DRAGON FALLS (IRE) was disappointed for a clear run and then restrained when QATOOMAH (KSA) lay inwards, as RISBY (IRE) shifted outwards slightly. Jockey M Harley (STRING THEORY (IRE)) explained that after beginning well, the colt travelled well during the early and middle stages, however when placed under pressure in the straight failed to respond to his riding. A post-race veterinary examination of STRING THEORY (IRE) revealed no significant abnormalities other than blood in the colt’s mouth. A post-race veterinary examination of DERBAAS (USA) revealed the horse to have a laceration to its left hind fetlock.

CERTITY (USA) proved difficult to load. Mr C Appleby, the trainer of CERTITY (USA), was notified that prior to the filly being entered to race again it must complete one satisfactory stalls test. FLOTILLA (FR) commenced very awkwardly and bumped heavily with L’AMOUR DE MA VIE (USA). When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of CERTIFY (USA), Jockey M Barzalona explained that the filly had become agitated behind the barrier, was difficult to load and raced keenly in the early and middle stages. Further, the filly was not suited by the slow early pace of the race. A post-race veterinary examination of CERTIFY (USA) failed to reveal any abnormalities.
