Sportsbet Blue Diamond Stakes Veterinary Inspections

Racing Victoria (RV) veterinarians have this afternoon completed their inspections of horses accepted to run in Saturday’s Group 1 $2 million Sportsbet Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) at Caulfield.

The Lindsay Park-trained Torture and Tony & Calvin McEvoy-trained Tough Romance both presented with a change in their gait and as a result will be reinspected tomorrow to determine their suitability to race.

The Phillip Stokes-trained Stretan Ruler was withdrawn by the stable prior to inspection and will instead run in Sydney on Saturday.

The remaining 17 acceptors were passed suitable to race.
