Race 7 – KING MORTAR

KING MORTAR, which performed poorly, was examined by the Veterinary Officer who said at that time the horse had bled from both nostrils.  KING MORTAR was again examined by the Veterinary Officer at the stables of Trainer J Moore this morning.  He said at this time he noted the horse to be lame in its left front leg.  Before being allowed to race again, KING MORTAR will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.

The Veterinary Officer reported that examinations conducted this morning of all other horses inspected during last night’s racemeeting were shown to have no significant findings.
