Racing NSW Stewards and Veterinarians have conducted inspections of all horses accepted to start in this Saturday’s Longines Golden Slipper at Rosehill Gardens.
All horses inspected passed as suitable to race with the exception of Rocket Tiger which was found to be 2/5 lame in the near foreleg.
Rocket Tiger will be subject to a further veterinary inspection by Racing NSW General Manager Veterinary Services, Dr Toby Koenig later this week to ascertain the horse's suitability to race.
All horses were subject to sampling on Tuesday morning with all samples to be analysed by the Australian Racing Forensic Laboratory for prohibited substances.
