Underwent a pre-race vet check and was cleared to race after striking the gate while leaving the mounting enclosure. Over raced in the early stages. Held up for racing room until the 300m.

Steward Comment

Slow to begin. When questioned regarding the performance of the gelding rider R Wiggins advised DIVIDE THE SEA did not feel comfortable during the running and failed to let down when placed under pressure. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to be lame in the off foreleg. The connections were advised the gelding requires a veterinary clearance prior to resuming racing.
